Hi all,

Background:

As a geocacher, I'd subscribed for a while to the rot13 command by
John Tocher @ http://www.randomloci.com/dev/ubiquity/rot13.php - which
made it easy to have the decoded hints on the hardcopy I'd take with
me.

One thing I thought that could do with improving on this command was
the lack of a preview. So, before long I'd come up with the version
attached, except I called it rot13b initially.

Having tried out this new and improved version and finding it suitable
to my needs, I named mine rot13, went to the command-list page
expecting to find John's listed as well with the same name.

Now at this point my version (still in the command editor, not yet
saved) had superseded his and was the version that was operational,
but I was a bit surprised to see rot13 listed twice, both with the
description for my version.

Expected: either John's version gone, or listed with his details,
possibly with a "superseded" tag and <strike> through the title, or
something similar.

So to make a long story even longer, I disabled his feed, the top one.
Even though it bore the description of my new version, both being
named rot13 now, I expected it to disable his version alone. It
didn't.

Since I no longer really needed his version, I went to delete it, and
that's when Minefield crashed.

I clicked unsubscribe: Boom!

Minefield then told me it couldn't recover, told me to select which
tab to not restore. I told it to restore every tab just the same being
curious what the problem was, it did (making me wonder why it couldn't
restore them to begin with).

Lo and behold, John's rot13 had been unsubscribed... except my version
in the command-editor had gone too. Luckily pressing ctrl-z in the
command-editor restored my copy, I saved it, and that's where I'm at
now.

To reproduce then (which admittedly I've not yet tried), I would
imagine adding a command with the same name as an existing one in the
command-editor, then unsubscribing the original is the crasher.

Thanks in advance for looking at this.
