I have a group of bookmarks set as my home page.  If I edit one of the bookmarks
and change the url from http://www.mozilla.org to http://bugzilla.mozilla.org
the change does not take effect.  Even after exiting mozilla and reloading it
the bookmark group loads http://www.mozilla.org instead of
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org.  The only way to make the change take effect is to
go to preferences and click "Use current group" again.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Edit the url in a bookmark group set as a home page
2. Exit and restart mozilla.
3. Observe the changed bookmark is not loaded.

Actual Results:  
The old url is loaded which doesn't exist anymore.

Expected Results:  
It should have loaded the new url.
I think this is as designed.  The preference button says "Use current group" not
"Use current bookmark group".  Just like if you had bookmarked a page, set it as
your homepage, then changed the bookmark.
Ok... maybe I misunderstood.   I assumed it was using the bookmark group.
I guess the easiest way to change just one tab is to open the group, change one
of the URLs, then re-set as your home group.  Hope that helps.

Resolving as invalid since this is as designed.
