Great idea. When loading a family in we should be able to say whether we want to load it as a separate instance or as a link object. If I select the link option then the family will update whenever it changes in the location where I loaded it from. This is by no means a new idea and has been really well implemented in the Adobe Creative Suite for quite some time. For example, I will have an InDesign document open that links in some Photoshop illustration. When one of my colleagues updates the illustration my InDesign document updates automatically while I'm editing it. 

 

Of course there should be some warning/confirmation to ask the user if they want the family to update, otherwise there would be all kids of pain when all the windows suddenly change while I'm editing the wall they're in.
