Allow restore of database #244

Closed hughjonesd closed 3 years ago

hughjonesd commented 4 years ago

Slightly related to #243, I'd like to restore the original database sometimes (e.g. on unload of a package that uses install_ functions, or when switching between different unit "namespaces" - e.g. in my case between LaTeX and CSS ideas about lengths). At present I can remove what I've installed but cannot easily install what I have remoced.

Yeap, we could add a function to re-read and re-populate the database.

Maybe even a mechanism to load external user-provided databases.
