[Nepomuk] Review Request: Add button to force the file indexer update all folders

[Gabriel Poesia]

Would putting the button in the "Indexing" tab be a good idea? In the
advanced tab, I would have to add another QGroupBox to contextualize the
button (or it would appear too different from the Memory Usage box), but I
don't know what to put in the group besides the button, or its title (a
short label, maybe, but the button is quite self-explanatory, so it looks
unnecessary). I'm not good at UI design either.
