Ok, so I think it might still be the c.db issues, but perhaps not only the tracking of the node holding bookmarks, but also the tracking of the active layout for a particular outline, I think they're both stored in c.db. Hmm, so layouts themselves are saved in g.app.db. They shouldn't disappear with a change in Python version. So if you'd done right-click Load Layout, your previously saved layout should have been on the list, and selecting it would have been sufficient to set it for Python 2's version of c.db. I think I need to poke around a bit more to confirm that it is changes in the association of c.db with the same outline between versions of Python that's driving this problem, and if so see if anything can be done about it.
