 Many big changes happened directly or indirectly addressing the points
 raised here. Considering this solved.

 Please, test the latest code (7.9), evaluate, provide feedback, open new
 issues if needed.

Comment (by wenzeslaus):

 Replying to [comment:5 cmbarton]:
 > Another one that might help would be better integrate saved workspaces
 with Projects (AKA Locations) or Mapsets. We could have a default
 workspace for each Mapset, for example, which would open when GRASS is
 launched and that Mapset chosen. By default it would be blank. But for
 demo sets like North Carolina, the default workspace could have several
 maps that would automatically show up in the display.

 This is still on the table. Consider open an issue for this.

 Replying to [comment:1 veroandreo]:
 > From these students, we get comments such as:

 Tutorials for absolute beginners make use of the "Download sample
 location" button in the Data tab.

 An "Open mapset" is still under consideration. Consider creating an issue.

 > - "I don't know how to add dataset of north carolina ...what to do next?
 how to add map of north carolina"

 doesn't seem to open in app, I'm kind of stuck here"
 > - "However, I can't seem to be able to see anything upon opening it. The
 UI opens fine, but I can't see a map or anything after selecting the North
 Carolina dataset."

 Now the data is at least visible in Data tab in way or the or the other
 which hopefully mitigates some of the initial confusion and leaves some
 energy for the next steps.

 Done in PR:705 and PR:868.

 Even better, the Data tab is now capable to do anything the startup screen
 did (e.g., PR:756, PR:731 from the recent changes).

 > - introduce a -vintage flag to be able to change to the old behaviour

 Sorry, not happening. If you are running from the command line (and you
 [would] have to use any vintage sort of flag), you can set the mapset from
 command line. If you want pick it in GUI, start in some mapset, e.g., in
 the demolocation or create an XY location for yourself. There is besides
 the default g.gui, there is also g.gui.datacatalog if you want a light
 weight experience.

 Behavior of `--gtext` is still undecided, so please do test and make
 suggestions.
