Auto-update when tasks are updated in other clients

[bergentroll]

Hi! It may be cool to have async refreshing of tasks.

Expected behaviour

I have few workstations, that always running or sleeping. Nextcloud tasks browser tab reflects remote changes periodically.

Actual behaviour

When I come from one device to other I need to reload tasks page to get recent changes.

Maybe some thoughts on details about this idea as a first step:

Possibility to trigger manually (button, keyboard shortcut) or automatically every x minutes (setting) while page is open.

Loop through all tasks, skip only the one currently viewed in sidebar (as this might be currently changed). Compare newly gathered etags against previously loaded ones (stored in hidden fields per row), add/delete/update row in main view accordingly.

Re-trigger sorting according to chosen order, as changes might have influenced the order.

Unfortunately I am not able to do the coding, but happy to support or back the solution of this feature :-)

Hey.
Are there any plans on addressing this? For me, it's the number one, most annoying thing with this app, and apparently there is one new bug report per year since 2020, with people who also complain about this :D

I'd also like this and I've been thinking about it a bit in the context of #2516 which could use cached tasks when a page first loads and then show the new ones immediately as they load from the background.
