Each base has its own options set. If base 1 has set mode to "slow", base 2
has set mode to "fast and slow", I doubt the user will reopen the next time
the bases in the same order, hence the saving of options is confusing. Same
thing for the cache : it does not make sense to always save the cache,
because you don't want to fill it with second order lines. It the options
were global (the same for all opened bases), this would have made sense but
not in that case.

If the engine made a wrong evaluation due to horizon effect, the only real
solution is to analyze backwards, which is still a pending work.
