newsitems from the source.

In addition, *new* filters don't pick up the moved source
but still refer to the older ones.

I just tested and can not reproduce the behaviour Martijn reports, I will assume
this has been fixed over time (it's been a while since someone posted on this
issue) and only the first part of the issue remains, which reports that if one
moves a news source the news filters lose reference to that source. I think it's
not too easy to fix, since the references are kept on the filters and the source
doesn't know which filters refer to it, so it will probably need a good
reference management system to fix this issue properly.
Is it enough of a problem to keep this issue or do we want to defer it?
