I was wrong about getting the right reference edits. The method, FileReference.getReferenceEdits, returns the list of the edits done in the reference node of that FileReference instance (FileReference.refNode). To get the edits on a differenct reference node, which is what I want, I should always give a reference node to onReferenceNode flag. The behaviour of maya and pymel is correct... I was wrong about that in previous posts... Also changeEditTarget is not working in my case, but its behaviour is somewhat correct (where I don't expect that to happen).
