Switching tabs reset the content.

[Salma7amed]

On switching tab the content of the form fields are reset to default.

Example I have 2 tabs that contain forms. When filling and switch back and forth between them, I expect to get the input fields of the form to contained the entered values and not to be reseted on switching.

Here is a plunker http://plnkr.co/edit/oK7TAQ64lAZspL0G7ZA4

I've got the same problem.

The problem is that content is destroyed while switching to another tab. That make this md-tabs usable only for static content...

Or maybe I did miss something in the doc.

In fact, the solution has been proposed : #1472

@Salma7amed , if you link your form inputs to class variables -- eg: by using formGroup or formControl --, I think the form state will be rebuilt for you when you switch tabs since the underlying variables would be unchanged.

@ZeBigDuck so the fix will be applied in the next release ?.

@RoxKilly the thing is I don't want it to rebuild the form on each switch. Because in case of tabs containing huge amount of data, it causes unnecessary lag due to the rebuild on each switch.
