Robert,

when I create a new project from template and save it, things are okay. And I 
certainly had my share of muse crashes.

However, I found a number of oddities.

== project file not rearranged ==

When I open an older project, the project file is not rearranged. The project 
should move to the top of the list, but it
doesn't. Consequently, when I start muse again, I don't get this older project, 
despite my global setting "start with
last song". It doesn't matter if I open this project via "open" or "open 
recent".

== opening project may crash muse ==

For some reason I get TONS of libInstPatch warnings like

SOUNDFONT FILENAME + PATH /music/sf/GeneralUser GS 1.44 FluidSynth/GeneralUser 
GS FluidSynth v1.44.sf2

(muse3:30560): libInstPatch-WARNING **: Invalid loop for sample 'Power Snare 2'

(muse3:30560): libInstPatch-WARNING **: Invalid loop for sample 'Xylophone-C7'
JACK: buffersize changed 256
INFO: Requested timer frequency:1024 actual:1024

(muse3:30560): libInstPatch-WARNING **: Duplicate stereo link to sample 'Gun' 
from 'Orchcrash(R)'

It takes a while until this complaining comes to an end. If I open a project 
while this is still going on, muse crashes.

== Frugal "Save file" dialog ==

This is probably not a muse problem at all, but owed to qt.

When I start a project from template and I want to save it, I may want to 
choose a new directory. In the dialog "Select
a project directory" the pull-down "Look in" shows the directoy of my last song 
(/music/2017-Aquilles) - good.

Other entrties in that menu are "/music" and "/", but they are greyed out, 
though /music is owned by me an I have rwx
permissions there.

To the left of the dialog, there are two names, which look like bookmarks, 
namely "martin" with a tooltip of
"/home/martin" and "Scores" with a tooltip of 
"/home/martin/Documents/MuseScore2/Scores". Both are greyed out.

(a) I don't understand why so much of the pulldown is greyed out
(b) I don't understand where these "bookmarks" come from and why they are 
greyed out.

I should mention, that my X-session is not a kde or gnome session, but a bit 
off the beaten track and just started from
a ".xsession" file, in case this matters.
