Not possible. If we would do that, then we'd have to stick to
non-recursive commits. And non-recursive commits can't commit folder
deletions.
--> we *must* commit recursively if the user has everything selected.

I was thinking more of having the monitoring thread set a flag, and
when the user clicks ok show a message that the contents have changed.
Automatically refreshing is not good, and interrupting the user with a
messagebox while he may be writing a log message isn't good either.
