Tabular data refresh
We needed a way to handle tabular data refresh when a user navigated around the map. Should we automatically update the table as the user panned? Should we just have a button requiring interaction anytime the user wanted fresh data?
Inspired by an interaction from Yelp, this lets the user stay in control of when table data is refreshed (potentially leading to loss of context, or a record getting removed from the table), while not requiring continuous interaction to maintain sync.
Additionally, by defaulting to refresh = off, the user's attention is brought to the option of maintaining sync, solving the problem of education about the feature!
