Here is an example for code reviews.

If someone adds a comment with a review, then the new comment needs to be 
displayed at the end of the conversation, the review table above the comments 
needs to be updated with the review just done, and when we get auto approval, 
we may even need to change the review state at the top of the page.

In this case there are three potential things that need to change in different 
parts of the page.
