rancher: Catalog App answers and values out of sync

What kind of request is this (question/bug/enhancement/feature request): Bug

Steps to reproduce (least amount of steps as possible):

  • Deploy a catalog app by completing the form
  • Upgrade the app
    • Edit the “answers” as yaml and make a change

Result: When returning to the upgrade page again the page shows the yaml editor, when clicking the “Edit as form” button the values differ from the yaml

Other details that may be helpful: The impact is that it can be quite easy to accidentally upgrade a service with old values

Environment information

  • Rancher version (rancher/rancher/rancher/server image tag or shown bottom left in the UI): 2.2.0-rc2
  • Installation option (single install/HA): Single

The current situation is very bad for us because we often need to copy app deployments via the yaml answer file from one project to another with minor changes (done by search/replace). But at the same time colleagues will make changes in the form. We lost the possibility to copy answers from one project to the other or the simple edit functionality in the form in 2.2.x. Would be great if you can bring back switch between yaml and form without loosing values.

we need to talk about how we will addresss this for 2.2.1
