Hi Harrissou,
Interesting. I didn't discover this new feature in QGIS core. Every day
something new to discover ;-)
It wasn't there in 3.4 - I just checked. So I don't know when it was
introduced. Like you, I also can't find it in our visual changelogs.
However, one thing that the plugin does better, is to offer a "free
form" change of the data source. E.g. when you want to change one
parameter in the PostgreSQL connection string. This is possible in the
plugin, but I couldn't find a way to do it with the built-in "change
data source". Also - is there a builtin way for bulk changes of data sources? Thanks, Andreas

Hi Bruno, There is a Python Plugin available called "changeDataSource" from Enrico Ferreguti that allows you, after installation, to right-click on a layer and change it's source - or globally for all layers in a project by clicking on the plugin icon. Maybe you can try this.
But I agree, it would be nice, if such functionality would be in QGIS core. If 
there is no feature request yet, it would be useful to open one.

The feature seems to be there already though I fail to find who implements it, browsing all the recent changelogs.
Thanks,

How can I change a non broken datasource? There is no button in the Source tab of Layer Properties... Should I open a feature request on github? Thank you Bruno
