Yes, of course, but that requires you to do it every time in every comp just in
case you later want
to change this. That is exactly why I'd like this feature, so you don't have
to.
This is not just about replacing sources (I agree that it could be improved,
but it's still not
*that* hard), but a way that would easily allow you to add nodes to the top of
the tree without
having to reconnect every little input afterwards.
