You need FAM to get automatic update of files. Check
the README in the source tarball.

This is a bug indeed. I will try to fix it asap.

Could be a good thing to have but this will have to
wait atleast until the gnome2 port. I hear that the
list-widgets are a bit more flexible in gnome2...

Also quite a big requeset... If you reallty want
this you can improve the odds of it beeing done by
writing some kind of proposal describing how it
could work and maybe some faked screenshots showing
how it could look.

It will not go in before 1.0 though.

This is almost the first thing in my todo now so it
should be done soon.
