- In a sense, this somewhat breaks behaviour from previous Kst versions for
- data sources. In the past, -1 was always used for "force". This was not
- particularly documented though, so I think it's OK. Objections are welcome
- in which case we have to come up with a different workaround.
+ - < 0 is deprecated and won't happen again in future Kst releases.
+ - updates only happen from the update thread.
+ - replace update(-1) to setDirty() and a mechanism to tell the update loop
+ to start again immediately at next opportunity (no delay).
+- 'Pause' only pauses data sources.
