My thoughts too. Absolutely shocked they updated the firmware last month, I only found it by forcing myself to check for an update one last time. lol But the biggest dam annoying bug is not listed as fixed!!! Glad it does seem to be fixed, though. FINALLY. Looks like I can now lift any future WD media device ban I had in place. 
For folks who want the screen space back for long file names in list view, this simple mod to the default themes still works with the new firmware: Flixster Free Mod
