Summary0000405: Renaming entities breaks links
DescriptionThe lights in my level broke and it took me a very very long time to figure out that I linked a light to two func_emitters, and then afterwards renamed the emitters. But the link still pointed to the same name, so it was broken.

Upon changing an entity name, DR should actually go through all links and adjust them. If DR currently has only forward links (source => target), this means going through all entities and when an link to "target" is encountered, this needs to be changed.

If DR already keeps links from source to target as well as a list of sources on each target, than changing the links is a bit easier (only needs looping through all sources), but I don't think this is the case.

In any event, the editor should take care of updating the links, not the mapper :)
