Losing Chat History

[johnsargent-sophos]

Problem

Steps to reproduce the issue

Multiple authentications, losing chat history, losing prompts

1. Chat as normal until authentication expires
2. Reauthenticate - brings up dialog taking you to a browser where you grant access
3. Chat window refreshes removing all the tabs with chats in them, showing a new blank one
4. Start a chat
5. Immediately promted to select a profile
6. Select Q Developer Pro (the only profile I have)
7. Immediately taken back round the authentication route again
8. The question you just entered disappears and you're presented with yet another blank chat tab, replacing the other

Expected behavior

Only have to authenticate once, remembering the profile
Open chat history (and context) retained
Ideally, authenticate without involving a browser at all
