PAW Application Assets Refresh When Opened

In a PAW Application with at least 2 assets, I can open an asset and it gets the latest data the first time; however, if I go to another asset and amend something that affects data in the first asset, and then go back to the first asset then it returns the data in cache and not the latest data until the refresh button is pressed. This causes users to think the wrong data is in the view unless they know to refresh.

I propose that there is either a switch within a book on any data presenting widgets that allows data refreshed whenever opened (maybe next to the refresh on a timer.) Or in the Application Section setup, have a button next to pass through context that allows the target book to always refresh when opened.
