Previously, files updated remotely wouldn't be downloaded in "as needed" mode if a copy of the file already existed locally and could only be re-downloaded by deleting the file via Show File. This causes remotely modified files that exist locally to be downloaded at sync time, even in "as needed" mode, by marking them as "force_download". While this might not be ideal for people who use "as needed" to limit data transfer, it's better for people who use it simply to limit local storage, and ending up with an outdated file while offline seems worse than a little bit of extra data transfer. In the future, we'll likely also provide ways to explicitly download and remove files, so keeping chosen files in sync makes sense. Files modified remotely before this change (which were marked as "to_download" instead of "force_download") won't be downloaded as sync time in "as needed" mode, but they'll now be re-downloaded on open.
