Thanks, that's a good point to raise. Christian and I had quick #sugar-meeting on Saturday about some ongoing design plans to improve the resume/start behaviour. It's roughly a full screen dialogue (like the control panel and naming dialogues) that appear when an activity is clicked, and provides the features currently found in the hover home palettes. It's one solution to the, "if I click will it resume a previous session, or start new?" Perhaps with this extra space it might be possible to introduce a way to 'start shared' for new activities.
