Not sure if this is the intended behavior of a bug.

It was not the expected behavior.

When viewing "Your Timeline", you can change your view to: All, "@Mentions and DMs", @Mentions, DMs, Undread, No API RTs.

If you select a view, to change your timeline, and then move to another panel, such as: Tweets you've sent, Your Favorites, Your user lists; your view remains active and filters the tweets in these different areas.

When first encountering this bug, I had selected the "@Mentions and DMs" view , and then went to one of my lists. My list appeared empty, so I hit refresh 20 times, exited Spaz, reopened, verified via twitter.com that my list still contained people and was showing their updates, etc etc... It wasnt until poking around that i noticed I had selected "@Mentions and DMs" in the "Your Timeline" panel.

Adding the "View" dropdown to each panel, with an independent selection for each, would resolve this unexpected behavior.
The "View" dropdown should act just like the filter text box. "Filter" exists on each panel, and is independent of each other filter.

It may have been intentional to filter the panels like this - its just awkward since you can only select the view from "Your Timeline"

    The title would suggest that I'm experiencing an issue with just that "View" - it is all "Views" after investigating.

    It's not expected, and definitely a bug. I think we actually have it filed in spaz.lighthouseapp.com though.
