[1.5.4] Selection Group not functioning proper in Segementation window

[nanakisan]

Forgive me on reporting a bug regarding a rather old version of Wings. But I figured since I did not see this issue reported. I assume it is still a valid problem in future versions as well.

Run down on the bug as follows

1: Create selection group normally
2: Go into segmentation for uv-unwrapping
3: Make changes to selection
4: Decide to update the selection group

Everything works fine until we get to step 4. As expected you would assume any changes to the group in the segment window would apply normally. Sadly such is not the case. Any and all changes made to any selection groups, creating of new selection groups will register in the window. but once you leave segmenting mode they're entirely forgotten or not respected at all.

Some images to show what I mean

AutoUV Segmenting is an intermediary window for temporary selection of where the cut will be done.
You must have noticed it doesn't happen when you are in the next window - AutoUV Editor - maybe because in this case the selections can be reused at any time.

I'm not sure we can say it's a bug.

Well I would say not wanting to save my selections made in a group just made. Could be considered a bug? I don't find this a huge issue. But it was a QoL annoyance as I was wanting to save my selections for use later. Only to find that the selection group I had just created was never saved.
