Dashboard, Applied Segments, & Viewing other Report Suites

[#1]

Current Situation:

The ability to apply segments to a dashboard currently exists.  This is a great feature!

Problem:

If you switch from one report suite to another while viewing a dashboard containing segments, all applied segments in the dashboard will disappear.  This makes it impossible to create a shared dashboards with segments.  (The obvious caveat is here is that segments you would like to apply across report suites are applicable and have been shared - which mine are.)

This problem causes me to have to manually update each reportet that contained a segment. I believe this to go against the whole purpose of dashboarding, especially when our configuration is the same across report suites.

New Idea Request:

When switching report suites, make globally avaibale segments stick.
