The new dashlet type "Link existing view" has been added. The previous dashlet view definitions were always holding their own view definition. When an existing view was added to a dashboard, the whole view definition was copied to the dashlet. Later edits to the view / dashboard were not affecting the other.
With this change it is now possible to add a view dashlet to a dashboard that simply reference to a standalone view. When the referenced view is edited, this will change the view in the dashboard.
