Previously this hot-reload only triggered when the managed policy settings changed. It now also triggers when user settings change, if doing so moves a setting between the managed and user configuration tiers.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis closes a gap where changing where a setting lives (for example, moving it from user-level to managed-level) could leave plugin hooks out of sync until a restart. Now that kind of change reloads the hooks automatically.\n\n- Area: Plugins\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5"}
