Issue Description
When you have a SmartObject mapping to a Smartform parameter on a K2 Workflow user task, the reference is lost after clicking away from the user task and back on the user task. This resulted in the SmartObject mapping displaying as an empty green block in the Smartforms parameter field. Upon attempting to deploy the workflow an error occurs.
Error Message:
The following error occurs: “Missing reference at SmartObjectField in Event 'Task' in Activity 'Task'. Error: While trying to resolve the following reference root.externalReferenceDefinitions[{"internalId":4}].methods[{"internalId":2}], an error occured: reference not found.. Stack Location : K2Process 'testWorkflow' >Activity 'Task' >ClientEvent 'Task' >ClientEventConfiguration >SmartForm >FormParameter >Expression > Stack End.”
