Ahm, actually, it's supposed to work. After all, that's what the 
InternalEditorAction is for. It stores all records changed in kpilot, and 
then syncs them to the handheld before any of the conduits start.

The field label on your handheld is just a setting on your handheld, which is 
not stored together with the addresses. Internally, they are still just 
custom fields.
