---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
 A common problem with a Feature Source that is in constant flux is that
 schema information is cached for performance reasons resulting in the
 schema information being out of date.

 To flush this cached item normally you would need to call SaveResource on
 the resource id of that feature source, which triggers invalidation of
 that cached item.

 To make this process dead simple, add a new "Flush Feature Source from
 cache" command. The implementation of this command is also simple. We take
 the resource content from a resource id and write it back to the same id.
 This will trigger cache invalidation, ensuring the next schema walk
 operation gives the current information.

 This would not affect the any open editors of the same resource, as they
 are operating off of a session-based copy.
