I cannot edit any replication agreements (except for the description field)
regardless of their origin from the "Configuration" tab.  I don't receive any
error, but if I make a change to the schedule for instance, the tab gets the
little red dot indicating a change occurred, but the "Save" button remains
grayed out and unclickable.
