a small and simple solution for this issue:
(see: http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=1149)

I added "window.opener.location.reload(true);" to file typo3/close.html 
which is called from alt_doc.php if you press the "close" or 
"save_and_close" button:

The reloading of the frontend page should to be done in close.html, to be 
sure that the database update has been finished.

----- snippet begin (typo3/close.php) -----

            <script type="text/javascript">
            /*<![CDATA[*/
                window.opener.location.reload(true);
                self.close();
            /*]]>*/
            </script>

----- snippet end -----
