Rethink refresh functionality on Service Table #184

Feature Description

Re-evaluate the need for auto-refresh and the refresh button on the Service Table page.

Problem It Solves

The Service Table is a slow-changing table (not getting dozens of SPs per day), so automatic refresh and a prominent refresh button may not be necessary. Current refresh behavior also covers content with a mask, which interrupts the user experience.

Proposed Solution

  • Consider removing auto-refresh entirely and rely on page refresh instead
  • Ensure the URL is bookmarkable so a refresh gives the updated view
  • If keeping auto-refresh:
    • Refresh in the background without covering content with a "refresh" mask
    • Reduce refresh frequency significantly

Alternatives Considered

Keep current implementation but improve UX by:

  • Background refresh without masking content
  • Less frequent auto-refresh intervals

Additional Context

This is part of the Service Table page wishlist tracked in #140.
