Mishandles Resource fractions read in from XML

Description
Please describe the problem: For given task with multiple resources with different fractional assignments, the fractional assignment used by Planner after reading in the XML file is incorrect. Instead of the fractional assignments in XML, Planner always assigns = Total fraction / nResources to each resource on that task.
Steps to reproduce:
- Create a task with uneven fraction assignments for a task in MS Project and output to XML (this reporter used Project Pro 2007).
- Confirm the fractions in XML are correct, then import the XML file to Planner.
- Notice that the assignments for that task are now Total/nResource for each resource, instead of uneven fractions.
Actual results: Suppose Task 151 has assigned Joe [100%], Mary [40%] and is written to XML file. Confirm that these fractions are indeed in the XML text. Planner imports the XML file and sets up Task 151 as Joe [70%], Mary [70%].
Expected results: Planner imports the XML file and sets up Task 151 as Joe [100%], Mary [40%].
Does this happen every time? Yes. Every time, every combination of fractions and number of resources.
