Description

Steps to reproduce
  1. Create a table
  2. Create a view on that table that filters entries based on some criterion
  3. Combine both in an application
  4. Change a value in the table
Expected behavior

If a value is shown in both the table and the view and it is updated in either (from the dialog) its new value should also be updated in the other.

If a value changes that controls the number of entries shown in a view, the entries (rows) shown should adapt automatically.

Actual behavior

No updates occur on the view. Neither is a value updated that is shown in both the table and the view nor is the number of rows shown in the view updated if a value changes that is used for filtering.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the Tables app with a filtered view, then trace how table edits and view filtering are refreshed. Done means edits are reflected in both table and view, and rows appear or disappear automatically when filter values change.
