The only thing I use projects for is to separate the different tasks I am
working on at the same time (like spaces on the Mac), so I can have one
world where I'm working on a client project, and a whole other world if I
find a bug in the system that I want to fix - I want to move to another
world, fix the bug, and move right back to my client world, with the windows
exactly the way I left them.

For my use case, saving projects doesn't come into play.  Why not remove the
save functionality, since that seems to be the objection everyone raises,
and keep them as a workspace organization tool - in image only?

For my workflow, this is too heavyweight.  In my mind, that's like buying
multiple separate computers to run different apps.  Even though I am working
on multiple tasks at once, they are not *that* different.  For example, in
my "fix a bug" task above, I want the fix to be in my working image (which
is automatic in the projects solution), without having to load into all the
other images I'm working on.

One of the killer features of Squeak/Pharo to me is that the whole system is
available to itself.  If I start breaking the image into smaller task-based
images, it feels like going back to applications and files - yuck! ;-)
