Repeater nodes re-activate after switching tabs

In the latest version of ComfyUI (v0.36.0-15-g3c80da7f) repeater nodes connected to bypassers automatically re-activate when switching tabs in ComfyUI.

Before switching tabs:

This issue does not seem to be limited to the bypass repeater, but also the Any Switch node.

Minimal steps to reproduce: Create an empty workflow. Add a single Any Switch node. Mark the node and CTRL+B to bypass the node. Switch to another workflow tab and back.
Expected behavior: The Any Switch node is bypassed.
Observed behavior: The node is activated.

I believe this issue is caused by "comfyui-frontend-package" being updated to 1.53.6 as part of the ComfyUI version update. I encountered the issue myself after updating from ComfyUI v0.36 at commit "8ad078b" to the latest v0.37. The frontend was also updated somewhere in between. I then downgraded only the frontend from 1.53.6 to 1.52.7, while keeping the rest of my ComfyUI environment up to date, and the issue was resolved. I think issue #766 is caused by the same problem as well.

Out of curiosity, I checked which version in the 1.53 series introduced the problem and confirmed that it started with v1.53.2. I haven't checked whether it has been fixed in the 1.54 series or later.

In any case, until rgthree is updated to support the new frontend environment, I think using v1.52.7 is a good workaround.
