> The model list opens without a freeze, a new container no longer flashes the loading screen, and four pages remember where you were.

With some password-manager extensions installed, opening the model list could freeze the page for two to three seconds. The extension scanned the whole page as soon as the search field took focus. The search fields in the model, container and chat lists now tell such extensions to skip them, and the list opens at once.

Choosing "+ container" in a new chat used to show the chat layout with empty placeholder rows for a moment before the welcome message arrived. That flash is gone.

*Model list, new container and four pages that remember their state.*

Files, Gallery, Images and Jobs keep what they last showed. When you come back, the previous list appears immediately and refreshes in the background. Files reopens the folder you were in. Your data and settings stay as they are. No action is needed.
