Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evince

I'm designing pdf slides with pdflatex+beamer, so for better navigation
I view the document in presentation mode.

In the normal viewing mode, every time I modify the pdf file, evince
automatically reloads it (that's neat).

In presentation mode, evince does not automatically reload the document,
moreover typing Ctrl+R (Reload command) does not make evince reload the
document. I have to go back to normal mode (Esc), then the document is
automatically reloaded, and go back to presentation mode (F5).

I'm on Lucid Lynx, evince 2.30.1. To reproduce this bug:
1. create a latex file (possibly using beamer, not necessary)
2. compile it to pdf
3. open the pdf file with evince
4. switch evince to presentation mode (press F5)
5. modify the latex file
6. compile again to pdf
7. In evince, reload the document (Ctrl+R)

Expected result : evince displays the latest version of the pdf file
Actual result : evince displays the initial version of the pdf file

Importance : 3/5. 
Disabling automatic reload in presentation mode could be considered as a 
feature.
However, Ctrl+R must work, it looks like this feature has been forgotten.
