What happens if user changes addon Environment variable? Is there a callback that will notify our addon so we can keep it synchronized? Or this is not practice in Heroku apps?
Steps:
1. Get APIKEY heroku config:get BLAZEMETER_APIKEY --app blazemeter
2. Change it heroku config:set BLAZEMETER_APIKEY=000 --app blazemeter
3. Open app heroku addons:open blazemeter
Result: On addon page still displaying old first assigned UserKey, so we have now mismatch.
Expceted result: Addon page should be notified and display 000 as UserKey

Hey Tamer,

No callback will occur, we advise customers not to change the config vars and had considered blocking it. Unfortunately there's a couple of legitimate reasons why they would change the value. Changing it doesn't happen very often in practice though.
