Description
With preferred editor set to iD, 'Edit' often (always?) does not open iD at the correct location when an iD tab is already open and being re-used. Going back to MapRoulette and clicking 'Edit' again will open iD at the correct location.

Research direction
Start by tracing the Edit action from MapRoulette to iD, focusing on how an existing iD tab is reused and how the target location is passed. Done means the first click opens the requested location even when an iD tab is already open, without requiring the second-click workaround.
