 If your BP_Group_Extension-based group plugin uses an "enable" setting or
 allows the user to change the plugin's slug or navigation tab label via
 the plugin's group admin pane, the navigation tabs do not reflect the
 changes upon submitting the admin form. (It seems that the group
 navigation tab is being rendered before the form is processed.)

 Plugin authors must force a redirect at the end of the save routine to re-
 render the page, like
 {{{
 bp_core_redirect( bp_get_group_permalink( groups_get_group( array(
 'group_id' => $group_id ) ) ) . 'admin/' . $this->slug );
 }}}

 Can we improve this behavior, or is it reasonable to expect plugin authors
 to force the redirect when necessary? (Similarly, I really like that BP
 handles the nonces since 1.8.)
