STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open dolphin in /tmp
2. Open console window
3. [nice@politemadness tmp]$ mkdir test_dir
[nice@politemadness tmp]$ cd test_dir/
[nice@politemadness test_dir]$ touch test_file
[nice@politemadness test_dir]$ mkdir test_dir_2

OBSERVED RESULT
After creating files in a directory, as well as a subdirectory, dolphin does not display a open directory caret so that the files and directories can be accessed. You have to use F5 to refresh or sometimes after a while (30 seconds?) it finally displays a caret.

Other times (not this test case), opening a directory, it doesn't always draw the caret for all the subdirectories that have something in them.

Also, if you delete the file and subdirectory (in the console), the caret does not disappear. You can even click the caret and it will rotate 90 degrees but it won't disappear.

EXPECTED RESULT
There should be a open directory caret when a directory has something in it and it should disappear when the directory is empty.
