When clicking on a story link from an email, dont open new window if there is an existing tracker window open
1. Have no tracker windows open in your browser.
2. Click on link to tracker story in email. Wait and let the story load in your browser.
3. Go back to email and click on link again.
4. It opens a new tracker tab in firefox open to the story.
5. Edit the story in the 2nd window and save it. Now go back to the story in the 1st window. You get the error "another user made a change to a story you were editing. Any changes you may have made since your last save have been lost. I wasn't editing the story in the first window though.
6. I think the performance also degrades with multiple tracker windows open in firefox.
7. This isn't a huge deal but I thought I'd report it anyway.

Inappropriate?Opening a story link in a new tab is actually a feature. We didn't want a user to lose their current work, perhaps in a different project, when clicking on the open story link.
Its not obvious but you can search on a story by id, instead of clicking on the link again. Just enter the story id search panel. Perhaps we can highlight the story id better in the email -
Inappropriate?Thanks Mark that makes sense.
