I tried to add the following URL as an RSS abonnement:

http://backslash.slashdot.org/

Note that this is ***NOT*** a valid rss url, but its what i entered. It told me its invalid. Now i want to remove it.

In the list of abonnements it shows me the following entries:

http://backslash.slashdot.org/
-- [some text, dont remember]

Cant remove the parent element ("http://backslash.slashdot.org/"), the remove button is grey. Removed the child element. That works, but the parent element stays. Cant remove it. Damnit.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add an RSS abonnement with URL = "http://backslash.slashdot.org/".
2. Some error message should warn you its an invalid url. This is ok.
2. Try to remove it. Guess you cant.


Expected Results:  
remove the abonemennt

That's just the folder, no? So after you unsubscribed, just delete the folder for it (not in the subscription dialog, but from the normal 3-pane view).

aaaaaaah!

what confused me was that it showed up in the abonnements management window, where i created it, but that i was unable to remove it from there directly / from within that window.

i still would consider this a bug.
