I believe that at the moment when Emacs gets focus it should for all files that are visited in buffers and changed outside of Emacs should ask: "File AA.C has changed on disk. Do you want to reload it?" I don't want to install this; I think it would be annoying. However, you could write it and post a patch, and people could try it and report whether they like it. If people generally agree it is a good thing, I will install it.
