What doesn't help you when listing them as well.

Questions:
1. why does dolphin update the .directory file *intantly* and esp. while still \
showing the dir. Why not when eg. leaving it or when closing down (bearing the risk \
to loose the update when "closing down" is a segfault)

2. why does that update block the GUI?
Leaving all "view per folder pollutes itself" away, it's rather supoptimal if I can \
block the GUI by touching a file in a dir with many entries. QFileSystemModel is \
threaded, so why would it block the GUI?

Cheers,
Thomas
