[Paraview] How to simply "Reload" a data file

Hi,

I'm facing the same problem and would be quite interested in a solution as
well. I'm loading pvd files, however the number of linked vtu files is not
varying in my case. Just the content of the existing files changes.
Something like a reload button or context menu entry in a future release
would be perfect.
