I was aware that it sets %p, not %d.

I had 2 reasons to remove it:
* It's bad UI design to have a button on one notebook page that silently
affects fields on another notebook page.
* It's quite easy to type %p, select it and middle-click paste it to any
other fields desired.
I'm not against adding something like it, so long as it's on the Build page.

Nick
