Its funny nonetheless that you should report such a thing:  we have a
customer who reports similar issues in a bit of their CMS, where a popup
submits its form (in Javascript) and then refreshes its parent window;
if the commit takes long enough (e.g., it hits a conflict), the parent
can end up showing the "old" data after the refresh.
