--- Comment #5 from Luke Kendall <luke.kendall at gmail.com> ---
In my original suggestion, I mentioned a checkbox to choose.
There was no suggestion to make it automatic.
I don't really understand why you're suggesting it would be automatic, or why
you think opening the same documents you had open last time, and closed via
Exit (or which were closed via Logout, system shutdown, or even a power
failure), should be a problem for reliability?

Maybe you're assuming that LO crashed? Surely that happens less often than a
graceful exit?

I don't see how either of my suggested approaches for the feature would affect
reliability, as the user still has full control. I simply proposed two UI
methods for being able to choose to open the same set of documents you had open
last session.

The main point of my suggestion is not to grow the picklist from which the user
can select each file to open one by one, but an ability to select the same set
the user had open last time.

It's up to you, I just wanted to clarify my suggestion.
