Permanent URLs for most common problems view

[Evan]

It would be nice if we could provide permanent URLs for parameters to the most common problems table on the main page:

[15:15:57] <mvo> ev: is there something like http://errors.ubuntu.com/by-package/software-center ? instead of having to type it manually in the input field?

Fixed in r153 and r154. Not deployed yet.

Once Errors understands query URLs, you can use pushState() or replaceState() (I'd suggest the latter) to change the URL whenever the filter values change. That way a value can be bookmarked, shared on IRC, etc without having to reload the page. <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/DOM/Manipulating_the_browser_history#Adding_and_modifying_history_entries>
