orientationMatch causes current_item to go out of sync

[GuySie]

If orientationMatch is enabled on the Canvas device, the device will automatically switch to an item in the right orientation when the orientation of the device changes. However, the current_item in gallery_status - which we use to detect when we need to get new item details - does not update when this happens. We currently reload the gallery when we detect an orientation change to force an update of current_item, but this can cause flickering or a change in displayed item on the device. It would be preferable to find a way to update current_item that is not visible to the user.

Check if syncing the Meural also updates the current_item? If it does that would work better than reloading the gallery, which causes a visible flicker/change.

Nope, syncing does not update the current_item :( apparently the Canvas itself isn't even aware that it is displaying another item entirely if orientationMatch changes it. Unless Meural fixes this, reloading the gallery is still the best solution.
