simple-scan does not load externally modified pages

[Gábor Lipták]

Binary package hint: simple-scan

Simple-scan allows opening pages in an external image editor, but does not update itself with those external changes.

I would like to see simple-scan to notice that the file was externally modified (timestamp updated?) and load/display the updated file in its page "stream".

this will not be fixed in the packaging of the application
