uiSref doesn't work unless matching "name". Can't use full path/name. #945

I have a hierarchy in my app with loads of states, of which some are lazy. Example:

My expectation is that uiSref="plus.mentees.current.mentee.dashboard" would work, but only "mentee.dashboard" works (since that's the 'name' of the state). Shouldn't fully qualified state paths work in uiSref?

Thanks in advance.

Hi, yes it's expected that fully qualified state name plus.mentees.current.mentee.dashboard should work. It's also surprising that mentee.dashboard works (it's not expected)

When clicking the sref and it fails to work (to plus.mentees.current.mentee.dashboard) I would expect to see some error messages printed in the javascript console with a bit more detail.

Yeah, it's weird. Nothing happens when navigating/clicking and there are no errors. I've since migrated to the Angular Router, but migration would have been a total PITA without this project. Thanks for all your work!
