[mapguide-users] Adding/removing temporary layers from session repository

[Kenneth, GEOGRAF A/S]

The legend builder tries to minimize the use of "full rebuild" thus, if 
you do not create a new "runtime map layer", but reuse the existing, the 
layer GUID has not changed, and the legend will not refresh.
You might consider adding some extra dummy parameter to the image url to 
prevent browser cache problems.
I hope that helps.
