While seemingly correct, an onremove method in Modal that triggers animateHide is problematic, because if one modal is opened from another, the one currently open will be removed from the DOM, triggering animateHide, and closing the new modal.
To compensate, an onupdate method now closes a modal if one is open but shouldn't be; this supports the functionality of the old method when the modal is closed not from the modal instance itself (e.g. app.modal.close())
This is not ideal, but necessary. We should consider eventually expanding the modal system to support showing multiple modals at the same time (stacked over each other). Then, we can move this back to individual modals.
When the page is scrolled, goToIndex is called, or the page is loaded,
various listeners result in the scrubber being updated with a new
position and values. However, if goToNumber is called, the scrubber
will not be updated. Accordingly, we add logic to the scrubber's
onupdate to update itself, but only when needed, as indicated by this
This saves us a LOT of unnecessary calls, and makes scrubber movement smoother.
Update for Mithril 2
- TagLinkButtons now have children passed in, even though those children are not directly shown. This is because those children are used if that TagLinkButton is the active element in a dropdown.
- Since `m.redraw.strategy('all')` is no longer an option, we use keys to force a full-page rerender after rearranging tag order in the admin dashboard
Update for Mithril 2
- Please note that PostQuoteButton and AutocompleteDropdown are not Fragments, not Components. Accordingly, they have been moved to the components folder.

* Update frontend to Mithril 2
- Update Mithril version to v2.0.4
- Add Typescript typings for Mithril
- Rename "props" to "attrs"; "initProps" to "initAttrs"; "m.prop" to "m.stream"; "m.withAttr" to "utils/withAttr".
- Use Mithril 2's new lifecycle hooks
- SubtreeRetainer has been rewritten to be more useful for the new system
- Utils for forcing page re-initializations have been added (force attr in links, setRouteWithForcedRefresh util)
- Other mechanical changes, following the upgrade guide
- Remove some of the custom stuff in our Component base class
- Introduce "fragments" for non-components that control their own DOM
- Remove Mithril patches, introduce a few new ones (route attrs in <a>;
- Redesign AlertManagerState `show` with 3 overloads: `show(children)`, `show(attrs, children)`, `show(componentClass, attrs, children)`
- The `affixedSidebar` util has been replaced with an `AffixedSidebar` component
Challenges:
- `children` and `tag` are now reserved, and can not be used as attr names
- Behavior of links to current page changed in Mithril. If moving to a page that is handled by the same component, the page component WILL NOT be re-initialized by default. Additional code to keep track of the current url is needed (See IndexPage, DiscussionPage, and UserPage for examples)
- Native Promise rejections are shown on console when not handled
- Instances of components can no longer be stored. The state pattern should be used instead.
