I really hate polling as well. It's more a workaround until things are
properly fixed in the server and those versions of the server are well
distributed.
An explicit poll-trigger is also a nice idea. But I would like to put
it into "advanced" ui or alike and keep the dialog as simple as
possible. Probably it's already too much as it is right now. I am
really looking forward to using elm in e18 to redo it.
As for the endusers: They probably won't care why the internals are
like they are. I don't know about the costs of calling an output
related ecore_x function once per second or so. Maybe devilhorns or
raster know them/can argue here.
