This all relates to a smaller issue I've been having with recent betas:
While they remember exact window position and drawer open/closed state, tmproj files seem to forget which side their drawer was actually on when they were saved. I find this particularly irritating for the reason Hans Petter points out -- I can't stand having the drawer on the right side ;), which seems to be the new, more strongly-held default. Sure, I can move the window over to the right edge of the screen and close/open the drawer to force it back to the left, but this hardly seems appropriate, if only it could remember the exact state of the drawer in the project file (not just open/closed).
Not ultra high priority, but fairly simple and quite annoying (and I wonder, why wasn't this a problem before ~b14?). -jrk
