Changing the name on an inject mode causes the button to be disabled and it has to be re-deployed.

Just noticed this when doing a bit of housekeeping

Debug node carries on working fine if name is changed on that one

Its the same in 0.20.7 and 1.0 beta 3

yes - all the app knows is that you have changed the config - we don't know what. For the debug (input only) we can allow it to continue as it may just show duff info until re-deployed - so not dangerous. Whereas the inject node could potentially inject invalid data (if you changed what it injects) so we need you to re-deploy.
