[Fixed] Adding filters creates new filter groups

Excuse me, I'm not sure whether it is a bug or not.

After a clean installation of ABP, I restored an old file of custom filters I had. This went fine. The problem is, when I add a new custom filter manually ( via context menu, right-click on a page ), afterwards, it creates new entry "Ad Blocking Rules".

Is this the right behavior? Why it cannot see the first list and add the new additional filters there? Thank you!

Currently I use v. b3276 on Fx 9beta + Nightly 11 x64

From the dev build announcement,
Creating filters via filter composer will create a new special filter group even when user-defined groups are available.
The developer is working on it, a fix will be released soon.

Removed the "invalid" mark - it is very much a bug, merely a known one. Also renamed the topic - it has nothing to do with backup so the title was misleading.
