There have been a few queries [1], [2] recently and there is a long standard enhancement request [3] regarding automatic deployment.
What has made changes in this area difficult in the past is a) a lack of a clear definition as to what the expected behaviour is and b) a lack of test cases to validate that behaviour. In an attempt to improve the situation, I have tried to document a proposed expected behaviour [4]. There may be some deviations from the current behaviour and support for fixing BZ 51294 is new. I hope to start implementing some test cases for [4] soon. Before I do, any feedback on the proposed expected behaviour? I haven't looked in detail at the existing code yet. The proposal may need tweaking to minimise the deviation from the current behaviour.
