Bug 176436 Charts Imported from Libraries do not update when libraries change
During a live presentation of BIRT at EclipseCon, we came across a rather embarassing issue. When charts are included in a library, and imported into a report design from a library, any changes to the library instance of the chart do not reflect in the report itself.

					newList.remove( parent );
					int index = newList.indexOf( element );
					newList.add( index, parent );
