Ion tab ng repeat issue

[TheCodeDestroyer]

Well I have been playing around with Ion tabs a bit and I think I found a bug.
My current code looks like this:

<ion-tabs class="tabs-icon-top tabs-top tabs-dark">
    <ion-tab ng-repeat="tab in tabs" title="{{ tab.title | translate }}" icon="{{ tab.icon }}" href="#/{{ tab.htmlUri }}">
        <ion-nav-view name="{{ tab.viewName }}"></ion-nav-view>
    </ion-tab>
</ion-tabs>

If I replace <ion-nav-view name="{{ tab.viewName }}"></ion-nav-view> with
<ion-nav-view name="home-tab"></ion-nav-view> it works so I was wondering why doesn't
{{ tab.viewName }} resolve If I inspect the element it hasn't even been parsed its still name="{{ tab.viewName }}" in html.

I have the exact same problem. It is a bit annoying as it kind of broke the whole picture.
I changed ion-nav-view to ui-view, it works to my case. After which, one need to add @(parent_view) marker in the router js for the subviews in the same tab.

Ionic is such a brilliant thing so I hope it will get fixed :).

BTW, if somebody see this, I kind of want to say, some detectives and/or services in the code is not easy to customize. I don't know if this is meant by the programmers. If so, one can stop reading.

Otherwise, to me, it's hard to customize the designed use case which also makes any contribution to the code tough. I would also worried if the code keep growing, would the maintenance job a heavier and heavier burden to the team. For example, the header, I want to adjust the title to be a center element which can hold and customized elements, e.g. a button-bar, functioned also with the provided title. But I gave up after several hours struggling. Ended up using a header service on my own...
Someone said that one can use ng-if, but actually it broke the ion-nav-buttons detective as well.

I'm not complaining, the whole job ionic team has done and is doing is really really amazing. Thank you all.

See #1503, #1526

You can accomplish this if you look at the pull request in 1526. However, it's not recommended.
