After creating a folder in the News & Blog section of the account window, I
added a directory below it.  If you then attempt to manage your subscriptions
and have the articles put in the subfolder, the subfolder name, while
selectable, is not retained.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a folder called "Macromedia" to the News & Blog section of the accounts
2. Right click the new folder and select "new subfolder". Name it "Flash" 
3. Right click the Flash folder and select "manage subscriptions"
4. Click "Add"
5. Add "http://www.macromedia.com/go/rss_flash" to the Feed URL: box.
6. Select "Macromedia" and then "Flash" in the Store Feed Articles in: box.
7. Click "OK"

Actual Results:  
If you reopen the subscription for edit, you will find that the folder has
reverted to the "Macromedia" folder.

Expected Results:  
I expected the feed to put it's articles in the subfolder.
