If you have a dataframe open in the data viewer, and modify the dataframe in the notebook, the changes dont get propagated to the data viewer unless you close and open it again

We might want to be careful with auto updating variables and the like.
Plenty of people have had issues with a similar variable viewer in notebooks (and still having issues). The root cause was identified to be with the variable viewer, causing huge delays/perf issues in jupyter notebooks.

Also, we know its a little slow to load with large data sets, hence auto loading it might end up being counter productive.

The not getting propagated was supposed to be on purpose. That way you could see a before and after picture of the variable. We should put the execution count or something in the title though.

Couple of thoughts. Rename to be "Snapshot viewer", or add a refresh button, or add some other form of messaging.

A refresh button would be great!
