I would rather expose the configured sync direction as a dedicated 
column in the sync job listing? Since they are logically both sync jobs, 
the sync direction just being a config option.

But of course splitting the listing into separate ones for push and for 
pull could also be an option to separate them visually even more.

Oh, thanks for testing this!
As already mentioned off-list, I have the suspicion that a here a chunk 
might get uploaded as `KnownChunk` although not present on the server 
yet, as the push job shares the known chunk list for all snapshots.

Thank you for the feedback!
