yep, i know thats the issue.  i have some thoughts on this...

first, i expect that logitech will bring ip3k to EOL soon.  call it a
hunch.  i just feel like they want the freedom to develop without
concern for ip3k, and certainly cheaper to do so.  they already have
depricated firmware support, and they are still selling ip3k gear!  the
end is nigh...

but lets say i'm wrong, how would you solve it?

my main idea would be that sorted views would be defined by the user in
the webui (with some defaults in place obviously), and then on the
classic you just scroll thru/pick the view you want from what you
defined.  it would still allow for differing views on differing
devices, its just that the view template itself would be created in the
webui, and then chosen from the ip3k menu.  sp could work in a similar
way.

what i like about this, is that the views, once defined, are available
globally, and so easy to reach and scroll thru/choose, and easy for the
user to know what to expect.  i consider the current system of
"home>whatever" inelegant, difficult to navigate, and unintuitive.
