At the moment many feature classes lack of the mustExecute() method and thus can cause a touched feature not to be recomputed and causes the feature to be in a broken state.
Now this new enum value virtually makes the mustExecute() superfluous and thus guarantees to recompute a feature if a modified property has not set the Prop_NoRecompute flag.
On the other hand there are properties that should only touch a feature but not enforce a recompute. This guarantees a better performance and avoids unnecessary recomputes.
For example this is useful for placements where a change can be applied on-the-fly and the feature is up-to-date. Other features that depend on the touched feature will still be recomputed.
It turned our that the document could not be dumped as the xml specifier was used as first element. As the dumping added the <content> element around it was invalid. However, content is required to read properties. Hence the xml element generation was moved.

diff to py3-branch will remain in the following files in src/App:
- ExtensionContainer.cpp
- FeaturePythonPyImp.h +.inl
most likely these files depend on Tools and Base
