darktable should keep all it's triangles, especially this one

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in darkroom with enough images to scroll the filmstrip, using the supplied screencast as a reference. Trace the darkroom filmstrip behavior while scrolling away from and back to the active image; done means the active image's triangle marking remains visible after returning.
