Issue 16
After installing DRM 2.2.1, the name of the DRM console shortcut on the desktop or custom location is not
updated from DRM 2.2 to DRM 2.2.1. This does not affect the functionality of the product and works as
expected.

Dell Modifications:
- Bug fix: Running on .NET4.5 framework over Remote Session causes Tab Item state to be lost
if RDP is reconnected. Similar behavior was observed even with user switching.
Code change: Added a new dependency property “SkipLoad” to determine if a TabControl should be
re-populated every time a load happens. Also track the last selected index before unload and use it to
set it at next load.
- Bug fix: TabItems containing other TabControl would not allow setting the selected item other
than the first element.
Code change: Populate the inner TabControl as soon as the outer TabControl is bound to a new data
source. This ensures the inner TabControl’s tree is available to select any element, not just the first one. It
works in conjunction with SkipLoad property.
- New: Allow new TabItem to be inserted at any specified index, not just at last position.
Code change: Provision AddTabItem method to accept an index position at which new item will be
inserted in the TabControl.
