hotlist: now with edit

There is one thing I just hate about hotlist. Let me explain on a
example. I run and close and run mc again quite often in many xterms,
and I don't remember whether I used hotlist in current session before.
I have my favourite ftp-sites in 'ftp' group in hotlist.

I run mc.
I press Ctrl-\, Enter to go to my 'ftp' hotlist
Then I chose site I want to connect with Enter
Then I do some work, forget that I used hotlist before
I press Ctrl-\, Enter and... MC CONNECTS to the first site when I just
   wanted to see sites list as before, Ctrl-C, Ctrl-C, Ctrl-C

This is totally non-intuitive and drives me mad. The fix is simple:

--- hotlist.c   21 Dec 2002 08:43:15 -0000      1.44
+++ hotlist.c   5 Feb 2003 15:38:44 -0000
@@ -1079,6 +1079,7 @@
     }

     hotlist_done ();
+    current_group = hotlist;
     return target;
 }
 

It would be great if it could be applied to 4.6.0 
Regards
