In particular I know the keys of a dictionary module are cached at first module load and only updated when the module's version number is changed. I discovered this some time back while working on such a module which would not reflect updates to the keys without bumping the version in the conf. Of course, this type of behavior adapted to Scope is fine on a desktop or even a netbook or most tablets. But it's unacceptable for a truly low-powered device. --Greg
