Error messages

It would be really helpful if broken constraints would be marked in sketcher. For example when I change a name of constraint in upper tree than all dependend sketches become marked as "error". Sometimes it takes a lot of time to remake all names. Ideally all constraints could be updated on rename:

1. create sketch with circle radius=5. Name the radius as radius

2. create new sketch with circle radius=radius+5mm

3. rename Sketch as new

4. check the constraint in Sketch001

The sketch name remain as "Sketch". Sometimes it is reported as error and sometimes not (as in this example). In more complicated projects it takes much time to resolve

Renaming of Sketch works here, the references in the Expressions are preserved.

I should be double checked because in my example after rename "Sketch" to "new" the reference remain as "Sketch.Constraints.radius+5" but should be "new.Constraints.radius+5".
