&segment= parameter should be forwarded to the hashtag when clicking on menus

[mattab]

currently &segment=country==fr is not forwarded to other menus clicked (it disappears). We should forward it as well as date/period/idGoal/etc. so that at least segmentation works when we manually add it to URL, while we're waiting for #2135

I regularly filter stats based on a custom variable (user login) and I always need to edit the URL to reapply the filter.

More complicated than I thought. I think there is a bug in the menu actually.

What I did:

• Go to index.php?module=CoreHome&action=index&idSite=1&period=day&date=yesterday#module=Actions&action=indexPageUrls&idSite=1&period=day&date=yesterday&segment=country==xx
  • It loads the content as expected with the segment applied
• OPen firebug > Net panel
• Click on the same submenu (or any other)
• You will notice 2 http requests made instead of one:
  • Expected: index.php?module=CoreHome&action=index&idSite=1&period=day&date=yesterday#module=Actions&action=indexPageUrls&idSite=1&period=day&date=yesterday&segment=country==xx
  • But then it also triggers (it seems at the same time) another request this time to the page without the segment: index.php?module=CoreHome&action=index&idSite=1&period=day&date=yesterday#module=Actions&action=indexPageUrls&idSite=1&period=day&date=yesterday

I have tried looking for the bug but couldn't pin point it...
