Description

When copying/pasting a shareable url into the browser, and then changing parameters, the url no longer reflects the current state of the screen. It would be a nice enhancement for the url to always reflect the currently selected parameters rather than having to click "Share" to get a new url.

Thanks for this tool; it's amazing!

Research direction

Start by locating the JavaScript handling for the Share action, URL parameters, and parameter changes. Trace how a pasted shareable URL is reflected in the screen, then define completion as the browser URL updating whenever the selected parameters change, without requiring another click on Share.
