I have 10.175.0.0/16 listed a prefix under the 10.0.0.0/8 aggregate

When I try to edit 10.175.0.0/16 to 10.175.1.1/16 it tells me:

Modified prefix 10.175.0.0/16

Presumably this is because 10.175.1.1/16 is invalid (which is fine) but it should be a catchable/reportable error.

Good point. Makes more sense to display the likely intended prefix rather that silently fixing it.
