This is only an issue with the old-style sync page. I seem to recall that this is not trivial to fix. We do not plan on addressing it but would accept a patch. >This is only an issue with the old-style sync page.
This indicates that there's a solution for this in the "new" page. Can you point me there as a starting point for a patch?
Also, do you have numbers how many people actually use the "new" page? Most people I know use the old one due to bugs/problems in the new one, e.g. when using change sets, wrong dispaly of conflicts etc.
Most of the people I know use the new view. Perhaps it would be more productive if we concentrated our efforts on fixing the known issues with the new view. Do you have bug numbers for the issues that are preventing you from switching? P.S. I seem to recall there were aspects of the old framework that made solving this issue non-trivial. I don't remember the specifics but I think the general problem was that the old framework was optimal in viewer refreshes and would only refresh on a sync state change (and a tag change wasn't covered). >Do you have bug numbers for the issues that are preventing you from switching?
