In the Parts dialog, the "Reset" option does the following:
It deletes the underlying Excerpt for that part
It immediately creates a new Excerpt for that part
Step 2 should not happen. Instead, the new Excerpt should only be created as soon as that part is opened again (or exported via the Export dialog). Basically, the part should go back to the state before it was created for the first time.
Why? For example,
it is currently impossible to add/edit/remove local time signatures when parts exist (as in, there are parts for which an Excerpt has been created, so parts that don't really exist but are made up in the UI are not a problem). One may hope that the "Reset" option deletes the Excerpt, so that one can work with local time signatures afterwards, but alas, that doesn't work, because a new Excerpt is created immediately.
suppose one has accidentally opened a part, but doesn't need it. After opening, the part's content is populated, increasing the file size, memory usage, corruption risk, etc.. One may hope that the "Reset" option undoes that, but it doesn't.
