My problem with that argument is that I almost always use Cleanup to
refresh the icons. It's fairly common for the icons to need
refreshing. It seems to be happen less frequently than it was in prior
releases though.

I almost never have an interrupted operation. Why would that be a
common situation? Isn't that mostly just when things go awry while
communicating with the server? Maybe it's because I'm talking to a
repository on a nice corporate network, but it seems to me that should
not happen very often.

I think the default selections should be for the most common uses of
that option.
