I would say, "if you just refreshed from disk, Leo should know it has
the current (correct) version"
Especially since the node shows the same contents are the the disk file.

But the dialog doesn't appear until saving, at which time Leo
has the same contents as the file, so I think something happened
I didn't know about.

Given that I've refreshed,  and the node shows the content I know
to be current, the dialog makes me scratch my head.

So "refresh from disk" is not implemented in Leo core?
It strikes me as Leo's equivalent of the standard command "reload"
I use it a lot when writing @auto files.
