Do I understand correctly, you are talking about Apply button available
in function edit window?
If yes, how do you suppose to work, editing function content without
Apply button? Using OK button only? but OK button closes window, so
making multiple changes needs to reopen this windows again and again. If
I'm right, then drop editing function content at at all. Seems to be
useless then.

I'm aghast about the source code quality. Fixing Apply buttons took 2
man-weeks?
Let's take it half-seriously: maybe it's not bad idea to drop pgadmin
developement at all ;-) At least consider to rewrite it from screatch.
With regards
