Under the dropdown on the Deploy button is a Restart Flows option. I had always assumed that, in terms of flow operation, this was effectively the same as restarting node-red. It seems not however. For example it does not clear context. Also D2 nodes' state is not cleared.
Is that by design? What should the behaviour be?
I don't really see the point of the feature if it does not do a 'clean' restart.
I am running the v5 beta of node red, but I assume this is not a change to previous behaviour.
