A simple custom column and a composite column with a simple template ("{#characters}, {#genre}"): both work without the refresh.
But a composite column with a template function ("{#genre:uppercase()}") doesn't work without the refresh.

I found an easy & efficient way to make composite columns refresh when "normal" columns are changed, satisfying your consistency goal. The change is in trunk source and will be released this week.
You should no longer need to do the refresh_ids before calling get_metadata. It doesn't hurt anything if you continue to call it.
