Hello @mher and thanks for this project
Resolve #1215
Relies on https://datatables.net/examples/basic_init/state_save.html
This allows to navigate to a specific task, then navigate back (press browser back) -> it restores the main tasks table state where it was (current page, current sort, ...) instead of going back to first page / initial state.
Maybe the other datatables could benefit as well, but the main use of this app is mainly to browse the list of task of investigate some one by one without having to find where we were each time
Very limited side effect (no external plugin, built-in option) and it keeps the url clean. (sadly no url bookmarking but not very useful for a always evolving list of tasks)
I considered the deeplinking plugin and stateRestore extension, both would have supported url params but it seemed simpler to just use this native configuration.
Thanks for the review (should be quick hopefully ;)
