If I define a named expression, and later go back to view the name I
just defined, the expression is different than what I entered.

Here is how to reproduce this:

1. start gnumeric
2. press the down arrow key to move to cell a2
3. choose Insert->Name->Define...
4. put "n" in Name field
5. put "B2" in Expression field
6. click "OK"
7. choose Insert->Name->Define...
8. click on Sheet1!n

Then you will see "B1" in the expression field.  But the steps above 
entered "B2" in that field.

This was a result of parsing the expression relative to the current
edit cell then regenerating it relative to A1.  I've patchedit in
CVS the next release will have the change.

Thanks
