Comment 4 for bug 2020589

Thanks for pointing that out Elaine. I tested a couple versions of Eg and it looks like at some point between 3.10.0 and master the pending new items display got broken. :-(

Or at least this workflow is broken:
Open item editor
Click Item Alerts (or tags or notes)
Add at least one new alert in the dialog that pops up
Click Apply Changes to close the dialog
Click the Item Alerts button again - no new alerts are displayed
New alerts are not displayed until the item is saved.
