I wrote a script to rename glyphs according to https://github.com/schriftgestalt/GlyphsInfo. The renaming happens like this: glyph.name = suggestedName. Unfortunately, this breaks all components which reference the glyph and I'm left with lots of empty cells. I could go through all components and update them in an extra loop, but I think defcon should do this by itself.

I don’t think defcon should do this. Defcon is there to provide base functionality, not guess what you want to do. One may use glyph1.name, glyph2.name = glyph2.name, glyph1.name to swap glyphnames with or without updating the composite glyphs using either.
