Add "Pull down to refresh" #136

If you mean the same feature as K9 has to check new mail, I don't think it is a good fit for tasks app.

Messages in mailbox are chronologically ordered, so it makes sense to ask for more by scrolling behind the corner, but tasks are ordered in many wierd ways depending on what user is currently doing, so it lacks the continuity. But I don't think it will do any harm :)

On the other side, "Refresh" item in menu is extremely important.

(And btw, good job on the recent version, it is very handy.)

I mean exactly the same feature. I had the same thoughts, but as you said, I won't do any harm. Also it seems to be a common pattern now, even for non chronological content (Chrome on Android has it to reload a page).

It's not high priority though.

Yes, please do that!

A "force reload or resync" option would be handy. Although I do not see any personal needs for it right now.

@HNJAMeindersma a "sync now" option already exists. It's located in the menu and called "Refresh". We may need a better title, though.
