I think that Hoang is right - I suspect the problem is that in one of the dtd or 
rdf files in the client, we still have the "Reuters" name somewhere.  It is not 
in the default (note the client default that launches names the tab "News" 
correctly), but could be elsewhere. 

However, Slamm told me he fixed this problem for the beta builds, but that the 
fix may not have happened in the trunk. 
Therefore... 

Kas - please verify if you can reproduce this is in the last beta 1 build or not.

Then, please verify if you can reproduce it in a post beta 1 daily build.

Yes. This is actually where I saw the problem first. By default you have a News 
tab and you are allowed to add the News tab
again  from the Favorites folder and end up with 2 News tabs in the customize 
panel on the right. (The correct behavior is when
you attempt to add the News tab again, it should only highlight the one already 
there). Once you save one of them changes to
Reuter's news in sidebar and they both display the same content.

With this build, I had a little different experience. I had the News tab by 
default again and it would still allow me to add a second
News tab in the customize panel (which it shouldn't) but when I saved , I ended 
up with 2 News tabs in sidebar ( None of them
said Reuter's). I could only open one of the tabs and clicking on the other would 
not open the tab, or when I moved them up,
clicking on the one would open the other News tab.
