That's what I have been doing till now. Since our XML is changing all the
time, including for the base objects, it is time-consuming task to
unregister and re-register the base objects and all the dependents on it.

As I am experimenting with local central, I can always run SQL queries
against mobyobject database. But, for a biologist in our team, the above
using dashboard might be a painful task.

The procedure is slightly more complex if you are using Signature RDF (you
