Is Zotero supposed to pick up modifications on non-PDFs?

Zotero reliably recognizes when PDFs have been modified, but in limited testing (with .odt) and according to user reports (https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/35654/veraenderung-von-anhaengen/#Item_5 - German) that doesn't seem to be the case for other filetypes.
Is that known/on purpose/going to change?

edit: in case that's not clear - this is for updating files via sync.
  • All that should matter is the file mod time. Is it possible that LibreOffice doesn't always update the mtime? I test this all the time with text files.
  • sorry, I made a dumb error testing, works for me now as expected.
