Need some clarifications about stacks in 5.6

Hi, english is not my first language so please excuse if sometimes I am not being as clear as I would like to be ... but I'll try :

In 5.6 I noticed a change (might not be a change, might as well be something that I've just discovered). Seems like you can add various blocks in one stack and choose to only show a specific block from this stack in a document. I find it great especially when dealing with a multilanguage site, as this avoids to multiply the stacks and facilitate the translation process. Not sure if the main purpose was this one, but it does help me a lot in that sense.

Now my problem is that I was so excited about this feature that I went reorganizing quite a few things in order to benefit from this feature.... all this only to realize that if i only include a specific block from a stack , then go and change the stack content , it does not get updated ..... Is this normal ??? If

I have never really got an answer to the question.
