[Geomoose-users] refresh layer

[Jim Klassen]

I've been playing around with something like this on and off.

I haven't tested this code recently, but here is an example of an
extension that creates a vector layer and keeps it updated based on a
GeoJSON feed from the web server.  I have a newer version, but it is
very specific to one project and would need some effort to make it more
general.
