[UX] Allow the user to change their mind about manually entering a machine name...

...without having to refresh the form.

So, once a user hits the "edit" link next to machine-generated names in order to customize them, if they change their mind, how do they get back to auto-generate? Page refresh? If they do that, they'll loose the data they might have entered in other fields in that form.

How about an "auto-generate" link next to the machine name field that reverts to the previous state?

Thanks, the /tmp folder was the problem. I moved it elsewhere and then the updated worked. Thanks again!

Probably not the reason, but worth to do a quick check: Sometimes the update cache interferes, so if something's odd with updates - some module (or core) claims to have updated, but then...
