The long time problem with the refresh mechanism is that it doesn’t maintain certain state when widgets are deleted and recreated as part of the refresh cycle (selection status, focus, scroll positions, the state of summary/detail widgets etc). Xavier’s specific problem here is that changing a global macro tiddler causes the entire page template to be reconstructed, losing the focus status. The lack of state preservation is a major flaw that I’d like to see fixed. We have some proposals for partial solutions that work for some state in some situations, but we really need a rethink that makes state preservation just work. One possibility is adopting a more conventional virtual DOM strategy for updating the DOM.
