After thinking about it some more, I agree with your conclusions. I think I'll ignore it for now since it isn't a show-stopper, and see if moving to 10.5 changes the experience.

Thanks Richard.

FWIW, I have seen some rare cases where new files on the Desktop aren't visible in OS X, and I've found I can make them visible by "tickling" the Finder by trying to create either another file or a folder with the same name -- then the Finder will give me "That name is already used" warning, and the previously invisible file becomes visible.

But I can't recall which programs I've seen this with. Maybe it was just Rev/MC, but I believe this has also happened with a couple others.

It's been very rare, and I haven't been able to come up with a recipe for reproducing it reliably.

Whatever the cause, I believe this is a bug in the Finder rather than Rev. I could be wrong; if it was limited to just Rev maybe there's something about the way they're using the API that isn't kosher. But I suspect if that were the case the problem would be more consistently evident, and in my experience it's very, very rare (may three times over as many years).
