How do you easily relink VI to an extended COM server?

I have a VI that uses automation open/close to access properties and methods of a COM DLL.  I recently extended (i.e. no properties or methods were changed or deleted, only added) the COM DLL and the VI broke.  When I click on a property node or an invoke method node it says there are no methods or properties.  If I remove all the wires and rewire the whole thing it seems to work again.  Is there anyway to avoid rewiring the entire VI every time you extend the COM DLL?

I believe that you should also be able to relink the property node by right-clicking it and navigating to the same COM class again. Unfortunately, there is not to my knowledge a one-click solution that will relink all property nodes. It would be worth submitting a product suggestion on, though, and I've included a link to do that here.
