The way the original code worked was that when you opened a directory it showed whatever the contents were the last time it was opened. It then requests the contents (which happen in the background thread). When those come back the displayed contents are adjusted to match what just came back. That gives really good performance and interactivity as well as being accurate. > >This is way that filesystem viewers work on windows and linux and > >would be what users would be expecting. > > And they also have mount/dismount for their filesystems. But we aren't talking about mounting/mounting. We are talking about displaying hierarchical information.
