It's clearer, thanks. I notice it's faster than F5, but not so fast than
'scan for new items'. For me, it would be a good thing to get a 'scan
for new items' shortcut possibility. I didn't find such one in settings.
Other question: in shortcut settings, i see refresh 'F5' | Alternate
'Ctrl+F5'. I replaced 'Ctrl+F5' with 'F6'. I hope i get same behaviour...
