Server Sent Events

It would be nice if the panel could send ‘server sent events’ when the user performs certain actions (saving, updating pages etc). Mozilla sse link.

We’ve looked into this already. Unfortunately we currently don’t have a long-running server process and it would be hard to implement with vanilla PHP (without using extensions such as Open Swoole).
