Description
Using view2.5d:set-observer-angles at the same time that a patch-view is in the process of opening won't set the angles within the view. The cause is this call to observer.goHome. Removing it introduces rotation, but also changes how the view would look otherwise. This should be investigated and fixed.

Research direction
Start in view25d/view/MouseableGLWindow.java at the observer.goHome call around line 152, then trace how patch-view opening interacts with set-observer-angles. The fix is done when angles set during opening take effect without introducing rotation or changing the view's normal appearance.
