Way to share Topic with specific part & details tab selected #608

Description

Describe your issue

E.g. I want to show someone the Questions on a specific part.

#298 added tabs to details, but it didn't seem to make sense to add the selected tab to the saved View because if you're already viewing a Topic, it doesn't seem like you'd care to have a specific tab selected after clicking a Quick View.

Also context: before 1d11b73, ?selected={partId} was tracked in the URL, but this was moved to be saved on the View, motivated by wanting to add all filter info to the URL and realizing that it's too much and should just be in the View. This has turned out to be annoying when using the "navigate back" button because usually I want to go to the previous filters, not the previously-selected node.

Solution you'd like

Maybe:

  • add ?selected={partId}:{tab} back into URL for sharing
  • move "navigate back" button within the Details/Views pane
    • "Details" back would go to previously-selected part
    • "Views" back would go to previously-selected filter

Questions:

  • where to put the "navigate back" button within the Details/Views pane?
    • maybe pane-specific toolbar...?
      • but would be awkward to align with "close pane" because close is pane-level, back is pane-type-level
