Roaming user favorites

For some reason, it appears that "local" favorites are actually local to a specific machine, not just the individual user. Favorites unique to a specific local machine are of limited use to my organization. We need user-specific favorites that are available to that user from any machine they connect from, as RDM is operating in a terminal server environment, and local favorites would keep changing depending on what server in the farm we get logged into via a load balancer. If this could be included in the upcoming 11.0 release, that would be great!

Hi,
I will add a feature request but it will be difficult to squeeze this in RDM 11.

Sorry I forgot to mention that this would be a great feature.

Whoops, jumped the gun again. I just discovered that local favorites are actually saved in the roaming Windows user profile, a fact I didn't see in the documentation anywhere. It still seems odd that the favorites wouldn't be saved directly in the database as user-specific settings, but as long as they roam with the user profile, we're fine with that.

As always, thanks again for the quick responses! :)
