Interested and Maybe, and a shortlist that stops shrinking

  • Save became two buttons: Interested and Maybe, with a tab each. One list is the shortlist worth acting on; the other is for the ones worth a second look but not today. A mark made under the old single button still lands in Interested, so nothing had to be re-marked.
  • A marked job whose listing has closed now stays on the page, flagged as closed and kept in its tab, instead of disappearing. The mark was always safe in the store; the page just stopped drawing the job once the listing left the sources, so a shortlist could quietly get shorter with nothing to show for it. That happened for real: a job marked on one day was invisible four days later while its record sat untouched.
  • The lesson generalises: when state lives in two places — what was marked, and what today's fetch happens to contain — the page has to be built from both, or it silently under-reports.
