Efm is an internal window as it's an internal feature of E17. I don't
think, we have yet a way to ask E17 to open an EFM remotely. But this
could be added easily to the d-bus binding.
  As for preserving views, it should really be something that E17
should do by itself. It already know everything about all it's
internal window and is tracking all open window. A part of this, is
almost already present as it is able to reopen internal window on
restart. Just need to save this information and be able to reopen it
later safely. Eet should make that easy, but that's work to do, and
not on our priority list as far as I know.
