Exactly. As discussed the last 500 times we had this thread ;-) GTK needs an API to allow apps to specify which windows are "the same window" across application runs. Then GTK can have some automatic mechanism to persist window state, or even delegate to WM or SM. But the API needed in GTK is a way for apps to give the key identifying each window across restarts. Right now GTK could save the state of a bunch of windows, but on restart of the app, would not know which saved states correspond to which newly-created windows. Reinventing window state saving in every app is pretty much madness.
