Default Odd upgrade behavior

In upgrading to .359, .448, and .461 on my 9780, I've noticed two odd things.

1. Home screen folder structure and arrangement are lost. I always create a "Closet" folder for stuff that I seldom use. In OS 4.x and 5.x on my 8900, this and the arrangement of folders on my home screen were always saved and restored when I would install an OS upgrade (beta or not). In OS 6, I have to recreate the folders and move everything around manually.

2. Although most of my (over 400) auto-text entries are preserved, two of them always revert to RIM's defaults. I use "yr" for "your", but after an OS 6 upgrade, it goes to "year", which is how it's pre-defined by RIM. Similarly, I use "hr" for "here" but after an upgrade it reverts to "hour". This never used to happen.

The Home Screen/Folder behavior is by far more annoying, but both are worth mentioning.
