If you change the default email address of a contact, it should et changed
in the group too if the contact has been entered by dragging it there, or
auto-completing,  or some other way that gives it the "little man" icon. If
you've typed in the name and address so that it has the @ icon, then no. (In
fact, that's exactly what you should do if you want to have the person in
the group with one of their non-default addresses).

Are you having problems when the contact has the contact icon and you change
the default address? But maybe this only works if you alter or delete the
default address, not if you change the default to one of the other addresses
but leave the original default unchanged (except for its now non-default
status). That's possible - I have to check it out.
