Sync 2.0 Incompatible With Custom Secrets

After several tests, I've come to the conclusion that Sync 2.0 doesn't understand custom secrets for 1.4 folders. I see this problem on Android:

And another user reports a similar read-only state on Windows:

I've tried custom secrets at a variety of lengths with proper key prefixes ('A') and the resulting connection is always read-only. The same key truncated to 33 chars works read/write.

 

Since custom keys were a feature of pre-2.0 versions (http://forum.bittorrent.com/topic/16410-bittorrent-sync-faq/, many references in the forum) I assume this is a 2.0 bug. Can someone from BitTorrent confirm if this is unintentional or something new in 2.0?
