I don't think so. And I think it's really exaggerating that this 
doesn't exist anywhere else. Click between tabs somewhere - it doesn't 
reset your state every time.

Do you think it's worth for creating an configurable option?

I don't agree with this, because I find it a useful feature.   
Especially when I am copying/pasting data between two backends - I 
don't want to have to navigate all the way back to the original 
directory.



Conversely, it doesn't make sense to navigate to the base level either 
- at a minimum, the redirection should be to the home directory.

Please find the screenshots below:



Old behaviour: You click on "My Documents" and end up in [Root]/baz

Please find the attached patch. It will enhance the nagivation though 
the menu when having

multiple backends. My motivation as follows:



When you login to horde and navigate to a backend, the directory that 
get's displayed

is '/'. Whenever you press the backend-name in the menu again, the 
directory that

will get displayed is not '/', but the current directory taken from 
the SESSION.



To my eyes this is a very unobvious behaviour that can't be found 
elsewhere in computer-world.



My patch changes that, so that the user will get back to '/' whenever 
he clicks the

backend-name in the menu.



Kind regards

Thomas Reifferscheid
