In the process of tracking down another bug, I came across some odd behavior. 
I'm not sure what the exact trigger is.

1. I first save a trivial workflow (1 SDF, 1 RExpression, and 1 Display) and a
trivial report (RExpression.graphicsFileName) into a KAR.  Because of bug 4569,
I close and re-open the workflow.
2. In the workflow, delete the Display actor.  In the report, add
RExpression.output.  File->Save Archive (KAR).  I usually save to a separate
file.  The report should still be there.
3. Without restarting Kepler, close the workflow and open the second KAR.  The
report should be gone.
4. Without restarting Kepler, close the workflow and open the first KAR.  The
report should also be gone.
5. Without closing the workflow, open the first KAR again.  The report should
appear again, but only in one window.

The ROML exists in all KAR files.
