How can I change the internal pointer to a solid?

Everytime I delete a feature and create a new one the Solid number changes. I can rename it at the browser level but anything derived from that solid is instead of looking at the new feature, wants the older feature.
So, I create a box
I use the derive feature to create a part that splits that box in 4 pieces.
I delete the box cause ... reasons. Then I create a new box.
The solid number is now Solid2 and not Solid1.
I rename the solid to Solid 1 so the derived part knows where to look.
No dice, the Split feature is gone and I have to start over.
Now expand this for all changes on something involving 1000 parts. If I could just rename the solid to Solid1 so that the derived component knows to import the only solid in the model, rather than look for a new one, every downstream affected derived part can work fine (or at least a little better).
