The BIG issue here is that the merchant backend SPA fails to render the "refund_pending" field of the backend response:

https://docs.taler.net/core/api-merchant.html#inspecting-orders

As a result, the viewer cannot distinguish refunds that were *approved* from those that *succeeded*. We can argue that refunds after the wire deadline should not be approved anymore (easy to implement), but more importantly the SPA needs to distinguish clearly between refunds that did happen (wallet got the money) and those that were approved but the wallet did NOT get the money (for whatever reason).
