I realized something not long ago that might be the problem.  The menu item  
changes based on what the type of the key window is.  If the key window is a  
broswer, the menu item is:  Browser->Reload (command-u).  


However, if the key window is a bookmark window or the "recently viewed pages"  
window, the menu item changes to:  Browser->Revert to Saved (command-u).  This  
is very subtle and could be confusing.
