  * resolution:  => wontfix

Comment:

 This is intended behaviour. The extent of a composer map is independent of
 the main map extent. If you want the composer map to adapt to a changed
 main map extent, you need to press 'set to map canvas extent' button in
 the composer map widget.
 Because both extents are different, it is e.g. possible to have multiple
 composer maps in one printout showing different parts of the map or to
 have an overview map at a different scale.
