Please provide any additional information below.

When review request is running checks and one of them has pending status update then every 10 seconds reviewboard send request _updates/?entries=initial_status_updates:0&api_format=json. Probably, 'get' method of ReviewRequestUpdateViewclass is called. This method returns HttpResponse with view template - 'reviews/review_issue_summary_table.html' with request, issue_counts and issues as RequestContext. The template has hard-coded class 'active' in open issues tab. Due to that after every _updates/ request tab is switched to Open Issues if user currently looking at other type of issues (waiting for verification/resolved/dropped/all issues). It disturbs reviewboard workflow and makes almost impossible to analyse issues with status other than open. Even though HttpRequest contains status 304 (NOT MODIFIED) issue summary table is swapped with content of request which result in tab switch.

Yeah, I can verify this. I'll take a look. We're pretty swamped right now, but I should be able to get it in for 3.0.18 (release date TBD).
