Well, from the user's point of view it is clever!

Restore from the root key, it will detect the loaded wallet and give you the option to just reset the password on the existing wallet.
Damn, that's clever! :-D

Not exactly, it's more of a hamfisted feature where it will restore the wallet from the user's root (this is how you can "reset" the password), but rip the meta data off of the existing wallet.

Thank you! I am relieved that works.

I created a wallet on armory sometime last year, and hadn't used it. This year, I reinstalled Armory and restored my wallet successfully with my seed (18 words). Now, to update/backup my wallet, I need my passphrase, which I can't seem to find anywhere.
Is there a way around my passphrase (or to delete/replace it) if I only know my root key? I was under the impression that this root key would allow me to do anything with the wallet, and I don't know how I saved all sorts of information (ID, root key, wallet name) but no passphrase, but that's what seems like has happened.
