Usually my status bars include ouput from external programs (e.g. biff-like
information on new mails, summary of Nagios states etc.). Previous to tmux
1.5 a config reload resulted in immediate re-execution of external commands.
While the current behaviour probably is more sane, I miss the ability to
force a full status bar refresh including triggering aforementioned
commands without having to rely on very short status update intervals
(e.g. to reset my status bar biff after having read a newly arrived mail).
The attached patch introduces a new command 'refresh-status' to allow this.
