System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.18362-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: GeForce GT 820M/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 376.67

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: 2e0ac1e0c4
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

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

#80304 was marked as duplicate of this issue

eric changed title from ~~modifiers wireframe update after convert to~~ to viewport wireframe not updating after convert to mesh with modifiers

This is almost the same issue as #67888 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.
