I have been trying out the Web Groups feature lately, and I find it  
absolutely amazing.

However I think it does not work properly sometimes:

The problem I have seen is that sometimes the list of the "Import"  
links is not updated properly.
When this happens, the list stays as it is even if I switch to the  
next page of Google Scholar results, do another search or open another  
page. Only restarting BibDesk makes the search useable again. This  
does not happen always, sometimes everything works as expected. This  
might not be a very helpful error description, but I don't know what  
other info I could give? (I'm running 10.5.1 on an Intel Macbook,  
problem exists with the latest stable release and with the latest  
nightly.)

I also have a couple of feature requests:
- It was great if you could save a web group with a fixed start page,  
for example a web group that always starts with Google Scholar.

Some options on what happens after an item is imported could also be a  
nice improvement:
- It was nice if the item was opened after import, just like the  
option for items imported via dragging.
- It was also helpful if there was an option to automatically re- 
generate the cite key for imported items.
- Perhaps it could also be useful if a list of fields could be  
specified that should never be imported.

Nevertheless the web import is one of the greatest improvements to  
BibDesk ever. Thanks a lot!

Best regards,
Matthias
