IMHO, the "reduced functionality" approach (current behavior) is more 
appropriate. 
Now, we can have the Admin performing maintenance tasks (such as module 
updates, installs) while users of the system keep their clients running etc. 
It is important that they can keep a form open and not lose the temporary data 
they enter until the 'Save' button.

Depending on the nature of update/modify, the user may continue, need to close 
and re-open a form or (worst case) need to logout and login again. If we had 
forced a session reload, we would definitely interrupt the users and thus 
reduce the Admin's ability to hot-maintain the db.

Note also that client-side expressions only come at Form loading time, so new 
expressions will come with new context, won't they?

Title:
  Need to reload session after installing addons

Status in OpenERP Web:
  New

Bug description:
  There's a long-standing problem in OpenERP: modules can (and do) add
  data to the user session context. As a result, right after installing
  some modules (especially the initial setup) OpenERP is debatably
  useable in that it will regularly pop up complaints about missing
  context keys (e.g. the leads search view uses `section_id`, which is
  installed by `crm`).

  The GTK client and the old web client "solve" this issue by ignoring
  it altogether and returning an empty context (empty dict) when an
  evaluation fails (whether it's the evaluation of a domain, a context,
  or an arbitrary python expression). I don't think that's a solution.
