These two items don't match.  The first statement says to
me that $:MyPageList becomes a list of page titles ("the desired
pagelist" at the time the 'save' button is hit. 

But the markup line says that $:MyPageList contains the
value "{(wiki pagelist group=Snippets Test fmt=#Titles)}", which
gets converted into a pagelist at the time that $:MyPageList
is displayed.

Which is it?
