Issue Summary
#quicktabs-TABID-DEFAULTTABID would be good format. queries are hard to manipulate with javascript. instead of ?quicktabs_3=1#quicktabs-3 better format would be #quicktabs-3-1

I tested the module and currently when I click on a tab, it doesn't seem to change the URL at all.
Problem:
User goes to page X, that has tab Y open.
User clicks tab Z on that page.
He now sees entirely different content and wants to share this content with his friend.
He copies the URL from the address bar.
His friend opens the URL, and sees the tab Y open, not the Z.
Vast majority of the users can't copy the link of the tab, so if the active tab doesn't appear as a hash in the URL, there's a big usability problem with this.
So subscribing - I think clicking the tab should change the URL by adding/changing hash.

you can definitely use panels + default drupal tabs to make exactly what you need or you can write jQuery that adds # to url and operates tabs on page load. Both options require effort.
For your task to be easier, quicktabs would need to manipulate url by adding # when you switch tabs and that was not original idea of this issue, but its similar enough...

Is this still being thought about?
