Issue/Introduction

When replacing a task in a wokflow by an inactive task, all dependencies of the old object are gone in the workflow.

The behavior is different if replace task by an active task: all dependencies are kept.

This behavior can be reproduced:

• Create workflow with some tasks
  • Replace a task with an inactive object (inactive jobs): all dependencies are gone
  • Replace a task with an active object (active jobs): all dependencies are kept.
