All this dock discussion makes me want to download the latest sources and
try and see how much of a kerfuffle this has become..

Without having used Leo in .. over 3 years or so now, I want to see how it
feels to use it in a far newer default state, then configure it again.

At least to me, generic dock UX should be something like this:
You have docks.
They can move.
They should instantly save in the current open leo file as how they are
when moved.  In generic apps the dock layout should save to the config and
reload upon app relaunch, but Leo is very outline-specific in how things
work, so we keep the dock tied to the outline.
They should be reloaded from the leo file when opened.
There should be some gui options, menu item, something, "Save current dock
state as default". "Reset docks to Leo default".
Perhaps there could be a "load dock state from saved" that would modify the
current dock state to that of a different Leo file without opening the Leo
file as a working edit.
Enable and Disable toggles should be visible in the GUI and not commandline
options because they are graphical elements of the program. Something that
is implicitly graphical to modify should also be graphical to enable, save,
etc.

My 2 cents, adjusted for inflation.

Mike
