Updating the "check for modifications" dialog after file updating?

Hi!

I just ran the "check for modifications" dialog.
Then I updated some files.
For these updated files to vanish from the list of modifications, I needed to press "Refresh".

I wonder whether it would be a good idea to "auto-refresh" those lines that
have been acted on in this dialog window. The "Refresh" button would then be needed
only for those changes that happen "behind the back", in another window or on the server.

Would that be possible? Would you think that would help?

Interestingly: if you delete a file, it vanishes from the list immediately.

A little irritating is that you can check the server state, but if you refresh afterwards, the
"Remote status" is empty again. One might think that there are no differences left.
I would prefer that the "remote" information is kept current, i.e. if the user pressed
"Check Repository", the check will be performed after every refresh.

An alternative would be to mark the Remote stautus as unknown ("?") to distinguish
a clean status (WC equal to server side) better from unknown (server has not been asked).

(TortoiseSVN 1.7.9 on WinXP/32)

What do you think?
