When I refresh, it should be easy to see if the file size has changed or not. However in nautilus, because the entire screen blanks out and then reappears, it's difficult to see if there has been a change in file size, *especially* if there are several files that changed in size. If you can't visualize how difficult it is to see if multiple files have changed, try setting up multiple file downloads, pointing nautilus at the download directory and hitting F5 to try and see if any of them have changed in file size - the "reload everything" makes it quite difficult. Compare this to doing an "ls -la" in a console window which is nearly instantaneous and you'll see what I mean. If the reload functionality could simply refresh each of the details for each file rather than reloading the whole screen from scratch then it would not "flash" and it would be a lot easier to track file size (or other attribute changes).
