App development process

There has been lots of discussions about deleting apps and not being able to duplicate the managed space app.  Postings like this get the point across:

Is any of this going to keep user generated content and permissions? I'm taking about bookmarks and personal sheets.  Will any of this enable overwriting the existing managed space app? 

Is it also the case that only the original/parent app in the shared space is allowed to overwrite the managed space copy? If this is the case, does anyone have a development workflow that ensures the original copy is not accidentally deleted?  This all seems crazy to me.  Is this the situation with using the Qlik SaaS product?

Taking this further, Qlik has released an SDLC document, but I can't get the proposed workflow to work.  I can't get a duplicated app to publish and replace as suggested in the document. Am I doing something wrong? Are certain permissions needed?
