Yeah, that's expected. I need to use the cute spinner that Tomaz added a while ago to indicate the activity... > When I change tag preferences, sometimes they are not updated > immediately. I guess it's a windows refresh problem. I'd love to understand a reproduceable scenario in which that happens.
