Import of 3.0 scores into mscore-2.0 presents staccatos as fermate

I have some scores made with mscore-3.0-devel (see attachment), and I marked some notes with "staccato" attribute. Saving this score (by mscore-3.0) and reopening it with mscore-2 presents all notes marked with staccoto now with fermate marker (I ignored the compatibility problems dialog presented by mscore-2).

So my question: is there a conversion tool for scores made by mscore-3.0 to mscore-2.0, or other recipies for such problems?

This kind of incompatibility is to be expected, I'm afraid.

3.0 has knowledge on how to import 1.x and 2.x scores, but none about exporting for those versions. Question is whether someone is interested and knowledgeable enough to implement and maintain this.

If someone is knowledgeable enough, I'm happy to show him how to use his time more efficiently :)

It's stated everywhere that MuseScore nightlies are unstable and you should not use them for anything you care about.
