I'd say it's probably the way a programmatic process was designed. Call it what you like ;)

Anyway, when I change dirs from the remote view while holding in ALT, it is obviously only changing dirs locally after the remote directory has loaded. Idealy, it should load the local dir onClick, or in other words, at the same time the chdir command is executed remotely.

I find it a little annoying that I have to keep holding the ALT key in when browsing synchronously from the remote view until the dir is loaded.

This process works fine from the local dir because it loads instantly.

The syncronize occurs after the change dir just incase there's a failure. However due to the complexity and nesting of the event it doesn't occur until after the list completes.

It does make more sense to have it occur before the list starts. However in order to do this the data for the syncronize must be available 3 procedure levels deep. I'll see if there is any way to relocate it but wont be an easy task.

UPDATE

The sync now occurs immediately after the change dir, just before the listing starts.
