Hm, yes I can see the point of this. I was thinking: isn't it enough that programs can store their own state ? Obviously what is lacking is the relationship between the saved states of _different_ programs, who form a semantic entity, called a 'project' or sth. :) Cut the expensive words, but we sure have a need here i guess which transcends the individual app level ...
