Currently when Blender loads an .x3d file it does not load the correct DEF attribute, i.e., each shape doesn't get its designated name, and instead is called ShapeIndexedFaceSetXXX.

Is there some way to fix this bug via Python scripting, or is it something deeper?

Found the problem: In Blender 2.74, inside

def getDefName(self):
        data = self.x3dNode.getAttributeNode('DEF')
        if data:
            data.value  # XXX, return??
        return None

Does not return the name in case it found it, changing it to 

def getDefName(self):
        data = self.x3dNode.getAttributeNode('DEF')
        if data:
            return data.value  # XXX, return??
        return None

worked for me, however I don't know how to suggest it as a bug fix nor am I sure that it is indeed a worthy fix as clearly someone already noticed that this function doesn't return anything in case there is a DEF.
