It has occurred to me (Alexander please chime in) that once back annotation has been solved subject to all the issues raised by Wayne and others that it would be a general solution. Of course, this would end up being a sizeable change to Kicad since the various edit functions, etc., who have to be modified to incorporate the feature. Like you I often fiddle with different packages and values and I typically switch to eeSchema, make the change, then hit F8 to update the PCB. It seems to me it would be easier for the appropriate changes to simply be reflected back to the schematic.

Can this do other kinds of changes than just annotation? I'm thinking of changing the footprint or value. For example I could use Change Footprint feature in pcbnew and propagate that change to eeschema. That's not so difficult to do in eeshcema and update the board, but often it would feel much more natural to e.g. test if 0402 R package would be physically better for some situation than 0603 and then update the shcematic based on the board if it fits.
