[Bug 514926] Re: Work view should refresh itself periodically

 

I'm interested in solving this one.
Question: we have the need to run some code periodically in different places (this one, the cleanup feature, possibly the "alarm" thingie). Should we implement a single signal that "ticks" every half an hour or so or everything gets its own custom timer?

Pro custom:
- not having custom timers isn't like reimplementing the timer?

Against custom:
- code is more understandable
- recurring events can be turned on/off easily

Bug description:
I usually leave the Work View on all the time except when I'm doing planning work.  In the morning when I sit down at the computer, I notice that it still shows the work view for the prior day.  Weirdly, the task count next to 'All tasks' is different - it's the correct total of bugs for the current day.

I think gtg should automatically refresh its work view periodically (maybe once every hour or two) if it is left idle.
