In the new Athena articles manager, clicking on Articles in the main body of the Category Manager is automatically opening them in "View" mode instead of "Edit" mode. This is happening even if the Category is set to "Edit" mode, when it is expected that it should remain in edit mode.
This is not an issue when clicking from the Tree on the left; only when accessing articles directly from the main body of the category edit. It also does not happen when clicking on a nested category in the main body, only articles.

This is happening for me also.
I was watching a friend work on their world and saw this happen repeatedly to them.
