Jon Siwek commented on BIT-1148:
--------------------------------

I have a patch for both issues in "topic/jsiwek/flip-roles", but it didn't trigger any differences in test suites, so I may try to come up with a test case.

> This method doesn't correctly swap address values.
> Also, since scheduled analyzers for a connection are looked up based on the endpoint addresses, it's possible they will miss being attached to connections that end up taking the Connection::FlipRoles code path.  An idea to fix would be just to have FlipRoles do a check for scheduled analyzers on the new connection tuple and attach any that turn up.
