Observation: If the only available option here is to re-import the file which will, of course, show the MIDI Import File dialogue containing the option to "Import MIDI Tempo Map to project tempo map" at the beginning position, then it seems appropriate to request a feature for some how "reloading" the tempo information from an external midi file instead of re-importing.
But a script does make sense also as a
work-around. Not privy with it, but it seems that one would need to
1) Select the currently imported midi item
2) Set cursor to the beginning of the item
3) Get the filename some how of the item
4) Delete the selected item
5) Access the filename and place it at said cursor position
One bigger problem here with this is that the user would have to re-choose to get multiple tracks again with a multi-channel midi file, and then new tracks would be formed, so it would get messy if not done properly.
Sounds like an option should be given to Reaper so that "BPM Tempo is automatically updated upon refocus if different" and/or at least have a manual action to "Reload Tempo information from external midi source file"
