[top posting] My 2 cents -
I think fixing the bug about the semi persistent tree selection is very important since it
can completely disorient and confuse users. I am uncomfortable about letting it slide
until we deal with the RFE filed. We have introduced a feature where we are now allowing
users to collapse the tree to reclaim real estate. While this is a good thing, this can
also further worsen these kinds of sudden and automatic scope changes. Even if the tree is
expanded, these kinds of automatic scope changes upon refresh are not advisable.
+1 for the RFE itself - I think persisting the last state at log off is always a good
thing. Many people may be working on tasks within a certain scope for many days at a time
and if the app resets to system level each time and that too unpredictably after 5-10s, it
is annoying to go back and drill to where they were. Based on my conversations with
customers about their setups so far, not a lot of them seem to have multiple DCs and
hopefully permissions will take care of some of the filtering of entities that are not
relevant. Having said all of these, I still feel persistence of scope selection will be a
positive experience.
Thanks

sure, no one objects here.
@Michal - can you please open the RFE (and the BZ) as I requested earlier,
since you raised these issues? many thanks in advance.
opened RFE
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1055587
I think the other bug will be addressed by fixing the RFE so no need for a separate bug
(not that urgent anyway)
Thanks,
michal
