Build Identifier:  20100917-0705

Preferences->Available Software Sites-> Edit does not allow editing only the name of the site. It always requires the change in the Location to save the result of editing.
It looks like intentional behavior but the intention is unclear and it is very inconvenient.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to Preferences->Available Software Sites
2. Select any available site and try to edit only the name
3. You will not see the "OK" button

Yeah, it appears to be intentional... the dialog is shared for adding a new repository. So if you enable the OK button then you get an error saying that a repo with that location already exists. I'll see if I can work around this.

Meng, this is assigned to you. Do you have any intention of working on this?  If not, feel free to move it out.
