Navigation Bar icon is changed after name is modified

You may have noticed that the navigation bar icon gets automatically changed if you alter the default entry’s name.

This is by design. The Web Interface will change the icon in the navigation bar after changing the names of corresponding buttons. This happens because once a modification is made to any page it is considered as a customized page defaulting the icon a customized default icon.
