Isn't that what F9 -> Options -> panel options -> auto save panels setup
is for?
I believe OP is correct: mc forgets the active directory if you do have
"auto save panels setup" selected.
$HOME/.config/mc/panels.ini:
[Dirs]
other_dir=/some/dir/somewhere
current_is_left=false
I think this file should be saved with:
this_dir=/some/dir
?
Whichever panel is active on shutdown, gets set back to $HOME on
restart. This is not correct.
From a cursory look, it's a simple hack to setup.c. I guess it got
overlooked because few people use that option.

When, as usual, I've got several mc running: they all initially start with
the latest <save setup> conditions.
If I rarely, change the format-order of a mc, I don't want that new specail
setting to be remembered and REPLACE my chosen default settings.
You seems to write as if you had onlu one mc running?
