Richard S. Hall commented on FELIX-3566:
----------------------------------------
Probably, for legacy reasons. But in reality, it should be the default. We
automatically will update bundles if they can be updated, but then we leave
them in a non-refreshed state, which invariably can cause problems if bundles
don't explicitly import what they export and/or have dependencies between
exported packages and private packages. Probably my fault way back when for not
thinking about that.
We could easily implement this as a flag to deploy; however, my recommendation
is that it would be enabled by default and you have to specifically disable it
if you don't want it. This may cause some issues with some clients, but I'd
expect it would help more than hurt.
