Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
- open an office file in Nextcloud Office (Collabora) web interface
- click export to pdf
- close office file
- why is my pdf not shown, I just exported it!
- reload page
- ahh, there is my pdf!
Describe the solution you'd like
pdf should be visible right after I close the office document, so: update file list after closing Nextcloud Office document
Maybe also a more general solution: immediately push file creation/deletion to all existing open browser tabs/windows (always, not only when closing an office file)

Research direction
Start with the Nextcloud Office web interface flow: export a document to PDF, then close the office document and observe the file list. Trace how the list is refreshed after closing and define done as the exported PDF appearing without a page reload; the broader cross-tab file creation/deletion behavior is an optional scope to clarify.
