Bob follows Alice (host).

Alice adds creates a new file in the project (this is initially not shared). Alice then saves the new file and adds it to the session.
Bob now sees a message \"follow mode stopped! you switched to another editor or closed the followed editor\" which is dead wrong, since bob didn\'t do anything.

Interestingly Bob is not asked if/where he wants the newly shared file to be added, it seems saros detects that both users have the seem project opened/shared and silently adds the file.
I would at least expect a bubble telling Bob \"alice added a new file xyz\".

And NOT leaving follow mode.

    Interestingly, this does NOT happen EVERY TIME for a newly added file.

    Some times, files are added quietly! Other times Bob is asked to select the project for the new partial sharing.

    I'm having trouble reproducing this at all. Could you please post a log from a session where this happened?

    I'll try to reproduce this and save the logfiles. I don't think i still have the old logs.

    Follow mode switches to follow mode paused.
