yes this is quite true and quite a problem - especially since there are other changes to this file needed for wordpress / php / phplists and similar other popular add-ons. My solution is to carefully document all changes made to such files so that they can be repeated later if necessary but it would be MUCH neater if some level of customisation could be tollerated and still allow standard upgrades.
Working on that, albeit from a *very* different angle ;)

I must admit I didnt test this aspect very thoroughly and certainly didnt restart the browser or flush the cache, so you are probably right.
It's not really important, I just wanted to clarify a bit on your otherwise fine mini-tutorial.
