Link to header does not update when renaming a note

Hi, I’m going to do a demonstration because I think it can explain better than words. If a mod is more eloquent than me he/she can feel free to properly edit this.

Suppose this:

  • file_A.md
### Properties of leg muscles
  
### Properties of [[neck muscles]]

### Properties of arm muscles
  • file_B.md
### Some recap on neck
First of all there's the muscles:
![[file_A#Properties of neck muscles]]

Now, if I rename the page “neck muscles.md” to “neck.md”, obsidian will do this:

  • file_A.md
### Properties of leg muscles

### Properties of [[neck]]

### Properties of arm muscles
  • file_B.md
### Some recap on neck
First of all there's the muscles:
![[file_A#Properties of neck muscles]]
> Unable to find section #Properties of neck muscles in file_A

As you can see, the link does not get updated.

Thanks, I am surprised nobody noticed this before.
