UDT not noticing changes to the plugin manifest

UXP Developer Tool
1

I have the watch option set for my plugin in UXP DT but it doesn’t seem to notice changes to manifest.json.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open UXP DT
  2. Set to Load and Watch
  3. Make changes to the manifest.json
2

that is correct.
The manifest.json file will only be loaded when the plugin is loaded.
The watch function will only check if the other files are changed and then i will update it to the shown/used plugin.

If you make changes on the manifest file you have to unload and load again.
