Well, we could also propose a "file -> past sessions" menu. When the
user selects
that menu, a dialog pops up, showing the list of existing sessions and
their properties values. There user can re-launch an existing session
from that dialog.

That prevents us from showing a dialog each time nemiver is launched.

I don't know which solution is the best, though.

Cheers,

Dodji.
