Blender Version
Broken: version: 2.79, 2.80, 2.81, 2.82, 2.83.0, 2.90.0 Alpha, branch: master, commit date: 2020-06-17 15:39, hash: rB2e0ac1e0c434
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

Short description of error
creating a mesh and adding a modifier to it (subsurface or solidify for example), in wireframe mode the wireframe does not update automaticly when applying convert to mesh, only when pressing tab the wireframe updates. [using this quick way to apply modifiers]

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  1. create any mesh (cube , monkey etc.)
  2. Z > wireframe shading
  3. add subdivision surface modifier (In versions pre 2.83.0 you need to enable optimal display)
  4. spacebar (search) - convert to > mesh from curve
  5. wireframe is not updated, press tab to update the viewport.

This is almost the same issue as T67888 but in this case it is just because using the convert to > mesh from curve operator.

This is not a display bug but a bug in the operator.

Using curve conversion was a red-herring (it's unrelated to curves).
This happens with Ctrl-A "Visual Geometry to Mesh".

We'd need to recalculate the edge drawing flags, since there is no guarantee the modifiers use the same method to calculate edge drawing as edit-mesh.

This should also run after transform.

Setting as a paper-cut since it's only a minor glitch.
