This is a valid use-case that we should support when users edit an Xml descriptor that imports other descriptors. The workflow is applicable to both editing a descriptor by CDE or by Deployment Descriptor Editor (DDE) under the cover.
Since this improvement may need more work, I suggest that we split this improvement into 2 steps: 1. For the short term improvement, adopt the suggestion by the user by providing a "refresh" button so that user can "manually" refresh the descriptor being edited. 2. The final solution is to monitor the update of all the "imported" descriptors (which can be a hierarchy of descriptors) of the descriptor being edited. Comments ?
