As has been explained in other replies to this thread, the wish is to
have a shareable image replace that also replaces the shareable image
for *running* processes. Maybe by a means for the process itself
to ask for a new "connect" to the shareable

But yes, you are right of course. For minor changes I have simply
replaced the schareable and a day later when all background and
interactive processes has been restarted, all are using the
new version...
