Description
Syncthing Tray command "Open" and Preferences window button "Open Syncthing Web Interface" defaults to 127.0.0.1:8384 irrespectively of actually entered value. As a result "Connection refused"/"Couldn't connect" message appears as the Web browser is directed to open the default 127.0.0.1:8384 address. The manual entry directly in address line works correctly

Research direction
Reproduce the issue through the Syncthing Tray Open command and the Preferences window's Open Syncthing Web Interface button after changing the address. Trace how the entered URI is retained after the implicit save; done when both entry points open the entered address without restarting Syncthing, while direct manual entry still works.
