It does actually, but if you run it from within VB, the templated
Button2 in the templated Form1 will get changed (try it, run the
program, click the button, quit, you'll see the text on the button in
the form designer changed), not the `real' button. If you run your code
standalone, everything should work fine.

For now, consider this a feature which looks like a bug. :-)
