Bug Description
When changing global state on an object using the AJAX controls, it's possible to cross with another user's change and not know it. For example:
* someone files a merge proposal
* I load the page and come back to it 10 minutes later
* in the meantime, someone approved it and it got landed so the status goes to "merged"
* I don't know this and change the status to "approved" after I review the MP
net result: merged => approved
and I am none the wiser until I happen to look at the email trail.
