ion-view title won't update (with fix!)

[clawish]

EDIT:
This post was really confusing to read. Please start reading on post#3. When you want a possible solution to the bug, you can continue to read here (post#1):

---

What can be changed in the ionic.bundle.js to fix this bug? It is one simple line of code in the ionView directive: the lines

$attr.$observe('title', function(val, oldVal) {
      if (val !== initialTitle) {
        navBarCtrl.setTitle(val);
      }
    });

have to be changed to

$attr.$observe('title', function(val, oldVal) {
      if (val !== initialTitle) {
        navBarCtrl.setTitle(val);
      }
        else {navBarCtrl.setTitle(initialTitle);} // line added by claw
    });

Would be nice if you'd confirm this and implement it.

Hi!

I don't actually understand your problem, your codepen is a bit too complicated for me to understand.

Could you simplify the codepen or explain simply what's wrong?

Thanks :-)

Hello there!
Thank you for your respond.
I am very sorry, my last plnkr was just horrible, big apologies.
The bug is still persistent in 1.0.0beta3.

Let's start anew and forget the post#1 (except for the solution :-) )

I created a video showing the bug (watch it first):
http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=2zp35sz%3E&s=8#.U2LB-62Swrw

The bug in short is: choosing the items does not make a problem (in terms of the page1 title gets updated), until one visits the page2. From this point on, one can change the activeItem to another one, but when you try to change it back, the title won't update!!! It seems, that always THAT title is bugged, which was active when visiting page2. See the video for a good example.

Here is a plnkr to experience the bug yourself:

The suggestion made in post#1 fixes this bug.
Simply add
else {navBarCtrl.setTitle(initialTitle);}
at the proper position in code, as stated in post#1

Thank you for spending time on this bug :-)

OK, I understand now! If you have a view where the title changes back and forth, then goes back to the original, it won't work.

I fixed it a different way. It works now in the nightly builds and will be in beta.5.

NICE! I had some hacky code to overcome this bug! Hadn't found time to do a repo for you hence why I haven't reported it. Awesome!
