Bug Description

I am using the last Nighty (version 201904182303+2bcf38d~82~ubuntu16.04.1) and I release that some hierarchical bus ports became dark yellow and others became blue (same as the bus itself).

Is this some bug or new feature that could indicate correct or incorrect connection?

Just to add some comment, moving the port, sometimes it get the different color (identify as wire port or bus port).

Also, in the video the `ADC-A[7..0]` and `ADC-B[7..0]` are bus port. They are correctly identify internally the hierarchical page as a blue port but, at the block in the root page, they still yellow.

Before the 201904202302+2b3b26b~82~ubuntu16.04.1 Nightly version, also `~PWM*...` were yellow.

All ok.
I been have just so update color issue when I copy some port and edit it to a different kind (bus->wire or vice-versa), or move a block and press <Ctrl>+z for return to the previous position.
Maybe the update color function could be called when create (coped) the new instance or even edit.

This will be fixed when we turn on real-time connectivity by default (working through some performance issues first)
