Average position fonction

Question

this problem has already been observed in versions prior to 9.05: An object (a signpost for example) already marked with a waypoint had to be moved approximately ten meters. If the new position is updated using the "Average Position" function, the recorded position is incorrect. It is saved in the middle of the segment whose endpoints are the initial position and the new position.
Best Regards.

I don't think that's how the Average Location function is supposed to be used, judging from the documentation. You use Average Location to create a more precise location for a waypoint's current saved location. Not to change an already saved waypoint to a new location based on averaging measurements on that new location. In other words, the waypoint's saved location and any additional measurements are taken into account for the average. 
 Is it an option to just create a new waypoint for the object's new location using Average Location, delete the old waypoint and rename the new waypoint to have the name of the old one?
