Jeremy,
To make the browser to pick up changes from the server then you can trigger

I'm afraid something is wrong: I created a new wiki ("tiddlywiki --init
server"), made a tiddler, changed the text on the file system and issued
the $tw.rootWidget.dispatchEvent({type: "tm-server-refresh"}) command in
the browser console, but the tiddler has not been updated.
I also set the configuration value as you wrote it, restarted the Node
server, and saw in the console that it searches for changes at specified
intervals ("syncer-browser-tiddlyweb: retrieving skinny tiddler list"), but
the tiddler did not take over the file system changes made.
Called $tw.syncer.syncFromServer() directly, same results.
The only solution that really updated it is the
$tw.syncer.enqueueSyncTask({type:
"load", title: "New Tiddler"}) command issued in the browser.
$ tiddlywiki --version
5.1.20
$ node --version
v8.10.0
Is it possible that Node 10 is needed for proper operation?

It looks promising, but I'm not digging into it yet if I'm so close to the
goal. In fact, maybe this may be closer to my needs if I really understand
what it is: https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/pull/4123
PS.: $:/config/SyncPollingInterval could be documented at
https://tiddlywiki.com/#Hidden%20Settings if you agree.
