The idea was that you could have a dataset that has non-uniform
images in them (different areas, satellites, bands, etc).  Such
is the case for polar orbiter data (at least size and coverage).

Tomorrow's build will have a stab at checking to see if the new
selection is the same as the previous and if so, don't change
any of the properties.

Let me know if this satisfies your request.  It's difficult to
know whether the user changes a widget or the user does so we
are not using that as a way of checking.  The other option would
be to have a lock icon that would lock your selections.
