---------------------------------

             Summary: Changing routes shouldn't force repaint of everything in route
                 Key: COUCHDB-2458
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2458
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: public (Regular issues)
          Components: Fauxton
            Reporter: Ben Keen


This is an old issue. Basically the way Fauxton works is that going from page to page within a particular route causes a re-render of everything - even headers. This is both unnecessary from an end user standpoint (the header doesn't need to change in many cases) and a bit unsightly (the header flashes as it's redrawn).

I'd like to improve this so that route changes only cause repaints of specific things (i.e. the main body) and not everything. I have something in mind which I'll put in a PR and open up for discussion.
