[FEATURE REQUEST] - Make filters and sorting persistent again

[LnLcFlx]

With the frontend changes in v4, filters and sorting are no longer persistent.
I really liked persistent filters because I usually only want to see my completed movies in the movies tab and always manually applying the filter is tedious.

I think the best solution would be to specify the default filters and sorting in preferences and then use those if no filters are applied manually.

Huh, storing filters in preferences does not sound like a good idea. Going to preferences settings every time you want to set a default is not a good UX, not to mention it would increase the preferences page by a lot.

I thought of a cookie based approach to solving it, but I haven't fleshed out a good solution yet. I'll put some more thought to it once I iron out all the little bugs v4 introduced.

You could add a button "Save as default" directly in filter popup. So if you would actually need to change it, no preferences is needed. And for different rarely used filtering you can do it manually.
