Update existing references on save

The patch works. Thanks.

Confirmed that patch works by re-saving the existing references as expected - also on branch 5.0! so we maybe should set this issue to the latest dev like usual and create a backport for older releases if required. But I would strongly recommend to comment on code regarding this new behavior and to add tests. Also it is preferable to add this to a new release version with a change record linking to this issue. Otherwise users can be surprised by a new behavior not expected from before.

Oops, wrong tag.

Haven't dived too deep into this issue, but if the proposed solution is simply a patch from another issue, shouldn't we just close this as a duplicate of 📌 Complete Synchronization functionality for existing reference values Needs work and adjust its Title? There is also a newer patch provided in the linked issue.

Yes, closing this issue as duplicate of 📌 Complete Synchronization functionality for existing reference values Needs work thanks for the heads-up @diqidoq!

Yes this here should be closed in fav of 📌 Complete Synchronization functionality for existing reference values Needs work

Oops, @Anybody was faster :-)
