Description Michael Vorburger CLA 2013-10-29 15:53:39 EDT
It would be neat if editor would keep cursor position in the URL (something à la /edit/edit.html#/.../some.js,l=123,c=45 used for ,find=panelbig,atLine=5 maybe?), so that when you Alt-Back from another file, it jumps back to where you were.  (I'd imagine you'd simply continually update the l & c as you move the cursor around the editor - using the HTML5 History API thing that shouldn't be a performance problem, right?)
