I'll give you my use case: I share my projects among a few images, and I like to keep them in sub- directories like: /path/to/repositories/project-1/ /path/to/repositories/project-2/ /path/to/repositories/project-3/ So each one of these is a separate, unrelated repository in a common parent directory for ease of finding.
So when I +Repository to each image, I have to navigate from the default directory to my repository for each new repository. If I can pick a start directory once as a setting, I can add new project's sub- directory or open them without any navigation. Does that make sense?
