I'm using the Beta 2 theme for the forums and generally it's pretty good. Thanks!
Visiting 'My Stuff' the page defaults to the 'Topics & Replies' tab. OK. When I touch the 'My Bookmarks' tab I initially see 'None found' and wait a couple of seconds while the list loads via AJAX. So far, so good. If I touch one of my bookmarked threads I'm taken to the first unread post (I think), which works fine.

BUT...
When I click 'back' to see another bookmarked thread, the 'My Stuff' page defaults to the 'Topics & Replies' tab again and I have to go through the hassle of swiping the grey tab bar left, touching 'My Bookmarks' and waiting for it to load again, then scrolling down to the point I reached in the list to view the next thread.

I know, I know #firstworldproblems, but if anything can be done to make this work more helpfully I'd be very grateful! In the Big Blue theme I used to use, each of the tabs had its own URL and could be bookmarked and appeared distinct in the browser history.

Even if a #anchor could be added to the bookmarks view so the page defaults to the tab the user chose, that would improve things. Then I'd just be waiting for the 'None found' message to be replaced with the list.

Any chance... please? Pretty please?

Excellent feedback...

... and for that we will look into providing a solution for that issue in the next couple of releases.

We have the next batch of updates to Beta2 coming out next Tuesday, so not sure it will make it into that one - but will look at a release after that.

I got the devs to look at this as part of some other work that would have a similar issue. So out next week with this update.
