The only way to tell was to look at the complete tag list before upgrading and compare it with what you got after upgrading. Too much hassle. Many people will just assume iD is correct when it suggests an upgrade and just accept it. But that may not be the case. The suggestion may be wrong in a particular case or it may be wrong in almost every case. The developers of iD sometimes go their own way, much to the consternation of some in the community. -- Paul
