Sugar emulator requires restart even when small changes are made in Control Panel

[Ankur khurana]

Issue:-whenever we make small changes in control panel in sugar emulator, it requires restart.It should not require restart when only small changes are made and that can be implemented without restart.

To reproduce the bug
1. Run sugar emulator
2. Right click and then select my settings.
3. Make any change and click on ok button above.It will show that change requires restart

Resolution:-when small changes are made, they should be implemented without restart.

Please discuss this upstream, as it introduces non-trivial functionality
which should not be implemented separately downstream.

Hmm. can you reopen this issue with a link to an upstream bug in the Sugar Labs bug trackers with importance set to medium?

It is actually a rather server usability issue.... every time a tech support person (or student) changes something in the control panel the reboot cycle increase the time required to make a change. When providing tech support for 10s and 100s of laptops this becomes a significant cost.
