We did address one problem relating to this a while back, however these things change all the time and Bentley Users seem to regularly come up with ways to cause issues - one thing I did find out recently was that DGN files have changed in recent times to use a "ZIP" type approach to their files, such that if you drag and drop a DGN into TBC it is not recognized and will not import - however if you use the Import command it will import. Not that this is the answer to this specific question (at least I don't think so).
If you have files that will not import - you can post them here and we will take a look at them - unless we get the data we don't know that this is exactly the issue - so we run the data through the debugger to see where it fails and compare what we get with what Bentley View and Microstation give us for the same file - that way we have some chance at least to find the problem if there is one. Without the data I have no chance of getting the Development team to look at a "discussed problem" on someones comment that we have an issue unfortunately.
If you cannot share the data publicly, you can email it to me at alan_sharp@trimble.com and I will take a look, reproduce the problem and then ask development to take a look at it.
