Its disconcerting for those of us who work primarily without projects to have all of our files go away. I guess starting a new J session would solve this. Btw on OSX, there seems to be only one Jqt instance "allowed".

When you open a project, it sets the file tabs to the last opened state for that project. If a new project, there is no open state, so no open files. I think this behavior is correct. You want the editor state to be preserved and reinstated with the project, and should not want the previous tabs preserved when opening a project. It is easy to flip back and forth between projects, and hence between different sets of open files.
