The problem is that once you start watching live tv and fiddle with dialogues 
and such for a bit, you have no way to go back to addon's main menu. Back 
button loses it's state and going from XBMC menu to addon gives you live tv 
straight away.

1. do this
2. then this
3. then click on this

the easier you make it to reproduce the problem, the higher the chances that it 
will get fixed :-)

Ok, I thought it all was more or less self explanatory

Mythbox 1.0.0 from xbmc.org repositories, installed from inside xbmc 10.0

1. Open mythbox
2. Select watch tv
3. Use red button to jump straight to xbmc main menu
4. Use back button to go back to live tv view

now, there's no way to get to mythbox menu whatsoever. Back button brings xbmc 
main menu, selecting mythbox from there doesn't do anything at all.

What I'd like to get is a special button that brings mythbox menu straight 
away. 

And, as a separate request, another special button that brings small popup 
window with tv guide for, say, next hour, without stopping live tv. But that's 
not so important as getting mythbox menu.

Well, after tinkering with it for a while, I was able to save the window id so 
that it can be restored when MythBox is launched again from the Addons menu. 
Unfortunately, launching the script again (while it is already running) does 
not work so the code to re-activate the last window can't be executed. Will 
have to look into it some more and probably ping the xbmc devs.
