Description

After a reconfiguration event (config file is modified), the configure() method is called on the same component object (unless its name or type has changed in the config file). For example, changing the config file to add a new property or changing an existing property for source component instance r1 will cause the object's configure() method to be called again.

We should consider whether this should be expected behavior, or if a reconfig event should result in instantiating new objects for all components specified in the config file.
