The reloading issue is fixed, right?

Question
-
This is the issue: There should be a way to select or deselect multiple forums without reloading the list of posts after each click.

Seems to be fixed. If so, let's move it to the Fixed section.

How is it fixed? I'm not really sure it can be "fixed", unless the forums provide a method for saving multiple views.
You can add forums to My Forums, but My Forums Threads gives only a single view.
For me, saving the URL's of different views in my browser is the best method.

"Fixed" = WAD?
Changing the list of forums automatically changes the list of threads that that new list of forums implies. In contrast we have Answers forums which requires a Submit before any action on a changed list takes effect. People complain about that procedure too. You can't win.

What does "Fixed" = WAD mean?
The Answers method of selecting a forum or forums using drop-downs is more intuitive, but less flexible because you cannot create arbitrary collections of forums.
I think having to apply the selection (rather than having it appear immediately) is OK, but I think the mechanism is confusing. The Apply button is in two places, but what I always want to do is click the arrow in the right pane.
