Unexpected remounting question

[bebbi]

I think #478 has a great question incl repro.

My use-case is to simulate an "optional parameter" in an editor that should not get remounted:

    <Router basepath="/">
      <Editor path="/" />
      <Editor path="/:someId" />
    </Router>

Once someId is processed, we navigate('/').
But then, the editor gets remounted and loses state. Can anyone help with the answer to the linked question?
