Description Mats Vold 2007-12-27 12:05:10 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.97.0)

I've been having this idea for a session management strategy for the KDE desktop.

Imagine that, in addition to the standard options - close, maximize, minimize - there
were an iconify option, which would create a link on the desktop to the applications
current session. The link would persist across logins, thus allowing the user to
create shortcuts for his/her favorite sessions.

I think the main benefits from this way of doing things would be  a consistent,
object oriented approach to session management, shareable by all applications.

Ultimately this just needs to be done on a per-app basis. I am currently working on this. I've already done Dolphin and Okular is in progress with https://invent.kde.org/graphics/okular/-/merge_requests/247.
