Description

Once #18207 was merged, changing projects cleared the contents before populating it with the new data, and this a desirable behavior. Now that this listing clearing is in place, it has been made evident that the "Refresh" button is making Workbench2 to do extra work, seemingly loading the project twice because the listing flickers.

IIRC, the Refresh button requested the app to go back&forward the router's history, and this seemed like a good way to implement a generic reload feature instead of having the button signaling all the active parts of the app at any given time, but if it's making the app do extra requests and local work, it doesn't seem ideal.

Check how to get the same effect without simulating a going back in the app's router history.
