I was looking at a filter I'd created, and wondered what the ★ meant next to "Details". I clicked it, and suddenly everything disappeared — as though the filter had been deleted. This was very shocking — it was no longer in the Issues menu, it wasn't under Favourite Filters (on the left), and when I click "Manage Filters" it wasn't there either. I eventually realised it was under the "My" category in "Manage Filters", but it was a jarring experience.

I propose that when you unfavourite a filter that you're currently looking at, you remain looking at it.
