Go to xbps-gui, search a package and install it. Change to the Installed packages Tab and search for the new installed package.
There it isn't in list. In case you installed a wrong package, you have to restart xbps-gui. And for the user it is unclear if the Installation works correctly, because of missing the package.

An Idea for fix: after Installation reload the packages from xbps-query -Rs again, then the list will be updated Immediately.

Your fix is the right approach. I'll reload the package list after any successful install/remove, plus reload on tab change so Installed always shows current state. Same fix also clears the related bug where Remove stays active on an already-removed package. Added to the bug-fix pass — thanks.
