Last time I worked on thunar code, that reload stuff was a big mess and
did not even work for jobs (copying, moving files). What makes it more
complicated is that there are folder reloads and file reloads. I
couldn't fix it completely, and if you change one part, it often breaks
the other parts. I believe the proper solution would be to create a
reload queue that gets processed regularly (e.g. while idle) and
confined to a single place. That way, reloads could also be prioritized
if necessary and perhaps unneeded/duplicate reloads could even be
avoided (network accesses for example are quite expensive regarding
performance). It could be more complicated than the current
implementation, but the current implementation looks also complicated
and is hard to understand, so maybe it doesn't matter.
