Audiobook Playlist Issues

In Itunes it allows you to create (what seems to be) audiobook specific playlists. (the playlist icon with a little open book) but when you transfer to an Ipod, the playlist goes into the music app and the audiobooks have to be selected individually through the Book app. I find this to be obnoxious. It worked perfectly fine the old way, how hard can it be to not change something that works, and from what I've read, a lot of people want back. It''s more convenient to have playlist that continuously plays, then having to scroll though all your audiobooks to find the next book in a series. If you are able to create audiobook specific playlists, then there no reason why the Ibook app shouldn't be able to read the audiobook playlist and play them.
