(Whiteboard: [pdfjs-feature])
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:69.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/69.0
Steps to reproduce:
My usecase is when I write pdf-files in latex then I like to display the file in firefox with the builtin pdf.js extension. However, I need to frequently rebuild the file so the content of the file changes each time I recompile the respective latex-document.
Actual results:
The problem is that pdf.js does not show the updated content of the file when it changes. Instead I need to manually reload the pdf.js-site by pressing F5.
Expected results:
When a pdf-file changes on the local computer then the viewer should also update the displayed document with the new content of the file.

I opened a second issue which might be related. Its about adding an additional cli-option called reload which would reload all pages with the given url: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1588643
