Modeshape not seeing changes made on other cluster nodes, unless doing write operation

When running in cluster mode, no matter what kind of storage is used (file system, infinispan), modeshape instance doesn't see changes made by other instances until it writes something to storage.

Steps to reproduce:

run main from:
org.modeshape.example.filesystem.ModeShapeExample

with parameters:
-Djava.net.PrefferIPv4Stack=true -Dlog4j.configFile=log4j.properties

Start two instances, in separate console windows.

pres 'l' then enter in both consoles, you should see that there are only two inintial nodes.

add some nodes in window 1, by pressing ie. 'x' then enter

switch to window 2, pres l then enter for listing, and you still see only 2 nodes.

press 'x' in window 2, and it suddenly sees changes from window 1 + new node, but window 1 doesn't see changes made in window 2.
