Order of operations issue with DS Requests #3512

@jhg03a

Description

@jhg03a

I believe there is an order of operations issue in DS Requests.

Perform the following sequence of steps:

  1. User A creates a DS request to change LongDesc2
  2. Before the DS request is fullfilled, User B updates LongDesc3 and fulfills immediately
  3. User B sees an error as well as their change
  4. User A sees that their DS Request now includes changes they didn't ask for
  5. User B fulfills DS Request from User A
  6. User B now sees that their change from 2 is now gone

I believe the correct action is to check for an existing DSR before updating the DS. The current behavior could lead to accidental deployment/reversion of changes.
