todomvc example not working correctly

Reproduce

When you add n elements to the app, then go to the active tab and start toggling the tasks from top to bottom, the bottom tasks will re-toggle the top tasks. This is because of the way the filtering is done.

Suppose we have the following tasks, ["task1", "task2", "task3", "task4"], and only "task4" is active.

When the Active filter is applied, we get an iterator containing only ["task4"] and because the program uses .enumerate(), it gives "task4" the index 0 because it's the only element in the active tasks. So, when we toggle "task4" which has the index 0, the program instead toggles ["task1"]. That is, the program uses the index of the filtered tasks to delete from the global vector of tasks.

Another problem?

But I think there's another problem and I just started playing with vgtk so I don't know know if I'm just doing something wrong or not.

After I tried to fix the problem I just described, I noticed that the indices weren't being updated and I think there's an error with the vdom-diffing code.

It doesn't matter what index is passed to Item::render, the value of the index passed to Msg::Filter is always based on the position.

Apply the following patch to see what I mean.

Here's a video showing what I mean: https://streamable.com/1il11r

When the item b moves to the old position of a, it acts as if it were a. If I delete or toggle b, the action will be applied to a. Then when c gets to the old position of a or b, the same happens.

Here's my fork with the patch applied: https://github.com/emi2k01/vgtk

Wow weird. Uh... contributions welcome ;)

My guess is that this is related to the // FIXME need to store and match IDs comment in patch_handlers in gtk_state.rs.
