Okay, I see. So, it's more of a usability issue:

1.) The Starred icons opens a page titled "Download" (where you would expect something that works like bookmarks / favourites).

2.) The Save icon (which is roughly "download something to disk") opens a dialog which doesn't show any *file* or the like being saved (downloaded to) somewhere.

The technical functioning may be correct, it's just that the meaning of the buttons is not clear. Could you try to find icons that represent better what the function is about? (Intuitively, I would say the Save action should have the Star as an icon, because you do set bookmarks and similar things with it!)

An additional suggestion:

- The Save action (= what I call "download" icon) opens a dialog titled "Set". This is irritating. (issue #1 The icon doesn't match the dialog title. Neither does the name Save you give it, btw.)
- Then the dialog shows 3 green buttons ("safe actions") and two red buttons ("destructive actions"). Isn't the purpose of the dialog to
   a,) either set the current page as the App Homepage, Website Homepage, or as a Bookmark? (-> radio buttons)
   b,) or reset the Website Homepage? (What is this, btw?)

So, there should be
  i.) 3 radio buttons (App Home, Web Home, Bookmark)
  ii.) 2 gray action buttons saying "OK" and "Cancel"
  iii.) 1 red action button saying "Reset Web" (though the relation to the above group established by i. and ii. is somewhat unclear)
