Describe the bug (actual behavior)

On the Topics -> Messages view with Newest, or Oldest selected, hitting "Refresh" appears to be doing pagination. If Newest is selected, and I hit Refresh, what is returned is not the newest, it's earlier offsets to what was currently displayed. It's not a refresh, all messages are lost from view and there's no way to go back.

If "Oldest" is selected, it's the same problem except in reverse; it keeps returning later and later messages.

Expected behavior

Refresh refreshes the page (consuming latest messages if "Newest" selected or oldest if "Oldest") using offsets that correspond to the expectation of the user.

As per "Describe the bug" section. Just browse messages of any topic with a few thousand messages, and hit Refresh.
