Comment 1 Peter Lam 2008-06-27 02:59:50 UTC 
this also applies to other diagram, eg, invocation in activity diagram.
Comment 2 George Vasick 2008-06-30 23:10:59 UTC 
It appears fixed in today's build.
Comment 3 Peter Lam 2008-08-06 22:47:42 UTC 
verified in build 20080805 that this problem still exists.
Comment 4 Trey Spiva 2008-08-07 21:24:59 UTC 
I think this is because of the way that a node is dropped onto the diagram.  If the node is not present on the diagram, when you drag and drop the node 
onto the diagram we will discover the relationships.  If the nodes is already present on the diagram, we do not try to recreate the relationships because the 
diagram will have redundant information.

I see. I can agree to this explanation.
