No way to reload certain in-game browser content - Out of sync

Bug description

This applies to all in-game browser pages but especially the dashboard. If you open the dashboard to see your friends list and check back on it after a while, the list of online friends is not up to date anymore as its state has not been updated since the first load of the page from earlier.

This is generally not an issue in for example the beatmap listing page since you can work around it by clicking on any of the filtering options, triggering a reload. However in the dashboard there's not way to do this whatsoever. Thus leaving you with the two options: relaunching the game or looking at your online friends' list in a browser outside the client.

One could either solve this by triggering a refresh every time the user opens the in-game browser, or add a hotkey/visual button to reload the page. Or maybe even refresh on a recurring interval in the background, though this might not be ideal for performance if triggered during gameplay.

If you decide that this is worth fixing I am more than willing to try implementing whatever you see as the best solution to this.

Screenshots or videos

In the client we can see that the user appears to be offline

At the same time, on the website, it shows that they are online

The user has set scores, meaning they're really online, not just logged into the website

The dashboard case is a duplicate of #13604.

Another case is changelog release stream user counts.
