 If you use QuickLook to examine a file on a remote server, it will not
 reflect the latest version of the file if you change it while Cyberduck is
 connected.  Obviously, this is a huge problem when you're a developer
 debugging software that manipulates files on the remote machine.

 To repro:

 1. Connect to remote server and do a QuickLook on a file by hitting the
 spacebar.  I was connected via SFTP using port 2099 to a Ubuntu machine.

 2. Download the file to your machine, change it somehow, and upload it
 back to the server by dragging it into Cyberduck.  Confirm the overwrite
 dialog.

 3. Hit spacebar again to do a QuickLook.  Note that it shows the old
 (wrong) version.

 4. Right-click the file in Cyberduck and choose Edit, and view the file in
 some other editor. Note that it shows the correct version.

 5. Now try QuickLook.  It will show the correct version.

 I'm setting the severity to "major" because of this bug's potential to
 waste a LOT of people's time, as it wasted a good portion of my day.  I
 thought the bug was actually in Dreamweaver, that it wasn't uploading
 files to the server.
