Can't save plugin asset from commandlet

hi! i’m trying to save a plugin asset (saved into its content folder) using UEditorEngine::SavePackage from a commandlet, but i think there is a bug into UEditorEngine::IsPackageOKToSave.

the asset into the plugin content folder is relativized by IFileManager::ConvertToRelativePath to: …/…/Plugins/…

but in FLongPackagePathsSingleton.ContentPathToRoot that plugin appears relativized as: …/…/…/Engine/Plugins/…

that is the same relative path, but UEditorEngine::IsPackageOKToSave at line 308 (if (Result.StartsWith(Pair.ContentPath))) tries unsuccessfully to compare the two paths.

so UEditorEngine::IsPackageOKToSave fails at line 4064 trying to do FPackageName::TryConvertFilenameToLongPackageName.

can you please verify this issue?
thanks!
