I think we probably found the reason for Cisco's seemingly over cautious
approach. The results seem to be dependant on equipment and IOS version. To
be honest, I can't remember whether it was 5500's or 6509's that I was
working on where the vtp domain change reset the revision number, but it
definitely did. I tried it on a 4006 today and it didn't, but the image was
an old one.
If I get chance I'll upgrade it and try again.
Cheers,
Gaz
