> Following up on a discussion with [~mcgilman]. When updating the flow via a
> REST api from an external process, there is a period of time where user
> doesn't see flow updates. There is no way for the user to 'refresh' either,
> has to wait for the next 30s cycle (default). From a UX standpoint, the
> Refresh should update to the latest state of everything (stats and flow).
> Suggestion: have the context menu's _Refresh status_ action fire an
> additional request to the *revision* API to detect external changes. The UI
> will flag the view as out of sync (maybe it should just update, because a
> user is already trying to force an update?)
> In light of this change, it makes sense to rename the action to a simple
> Refresh (drop the ' status' part).
