OpenStudio gbXML import subsurface constructions

When importing a gbXML file into OpenStudio is there a way for the OS:SubSurfaces to have the construction assigned? Looking through the source code there is a comment listing things to do and one of them is to translate the windowTypeIdRef. However, looking through the reverse translator it looks like it should assign a construction if the constructionIdRef attribute is specified and the construction exists. That said, on line 683 of the reverse translator it is assigning a construction to the surface, rather than subsurface. Is this correct? Or should the .setConstruction method be called on the subSurface? I can't seem to get it to import subSurfaces with construction references.
