I'd be suprised if that did it, update-gadget is used to force a
gadget to update itself because of data changes, not to cause
a redisplay. The most common example is to refresh a tree control
by recomputing all of its children functions.

So I think this must be a bug/oversight. I'll look into fixing it.
