Zotero when exporting biblatex format produces nested braces {{}} which is not helpfull at all

I am loading https://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-12-385095-9.00138-X into Zotero and exporting the entry to biblatex. Zotero builds the title as follows:
title = {Chapter 138 - {PACAP}},

This lets JabRef choke on the nested braces. I would propose zu use brackets or simple parenthesis.

    The inner braces are needed to preserve capitalization. This is valid BibTeX and works in JabRef for me. What issues are you seeing and in what version of JabRef?

    Jabrev 5.0 dev - snapshot from some days ago. Obviously there is a problem in that developmental version.

    Yeah this is valid (and necessary, and typical) BibTeX, so if JabRef chokes on that, that's a JabRef bug.
