In MSC/VS, this only really happens when you change a public struct. You
can't really change the structure of heap-allocated memory. Basically
anything else is fine though.
If you're tweaking code, you rarely want to re-structure your data. And
it's easy to understand what you've done, and why it says "a rebuild is
required" for certain changes.

 In VS, you break/pause somewhere, make some code changes, and then when you
