Sorry, in 2.3 the "shared" seen flag is stored in the "anyone.seen" database, so you lose all seen data when switching.

In 2.4, shared seen is the same as the owner's seen when you switch, which IMHO makes much mores sense.

Unfortunately, we're not going to backport that behaviour to 2.3.  It was a very invasive change to how mailboxes work.  Sorry.
