[Not a bug] Found a little confusing behavior regarding Tab/Sort on Prefered folders + auto tab colors

[Mjolnir]

This is not a bug, but a "history missing" on go back to previous directory, when having an auto Tabcolor & sorting on a definded "Auto switch mode" folder.

My "test" configuration :

View mode "color" + sort:
1. Have defined tab colors like : a "Red" tab color option, and a "Black" color
2. The "Black" color is always sorted by "Date" + Descending

Autos witch mode
1. Define that, for example, the "c:\temp" folder => "set this mode" = "Black"
2. Check the "Automatically switch view mode on directory change"

Add folder to favorites
1. Add this folder (c:\temp) to the "Change directory menu" (accessible via Ctrl+D)

My test:

1. be in any folder, like "c:\windows" (possibly set the tab color to "Red" & tick the "lock the tab, but directory change allowed"), and set the sort mode to the "default" one (by name I guess ?)
2. call the "Change directory menu" (via Ctrl+D)
3. Select/got to the "c:\temp" folder
=> Status: OK, tab folder is black, sort order is by "Date" + Descending

Then:
4. Go back to previous folder (in my example case : c:\windows) via the TC back button (cm_GotoPreviousDir)
=> Status: quite annoying (not a bug for sure, but...): the tab color goes back to defaut one (not the red specified), and the sort order remains the one set by the "Black" tab color (not the previous one)
=> Point: couldn't there be a "back history" on tab color & sort point ?
Note : I guess may be hard to implement... For the "Red", I may specify that the "Sort order" is "Name Ascending", but fact that, on "go back" the tab color is lost, it's quite useless

The history only keeps the directory and the cursor position in the directory. When you go that previous folder, TC sees a change in "Auto switch mode" location and applies the new mode.

Yep, I guessed something like that.
Thx for the response.
