I'm not sure, I got your point.
For example: I open an .rst file in the IDE. I build and the project and
somehow the compiler rebuilds this .rst. With the 2 second approach, the IDE
will ignores the changes and the user wonders, why his .rst didn't change.
Or: will not even notice.
Ah, you gave a counterexample why my approach would not work.
Things are not that bad :-). It's usually the milliseconds that get
rounded/truncated/whatever.
Yes. The problem is, that this happens after some time passed and not
instantly on write.
Ok, so how about: when the file was written less than margin+1 seconds
ago, it has to be precisely the same, otherwise there may be a margin.
