Thanks for the hints!

Indeed it might be an issue of the sigil.ini in the user directory.

Disconnected the networks (8 of them are sometimes connected at the same time)
Renamed the old sigil.ini and restarted Sigil

Voilà! It opens as I expected.
Compared the old and new sigil.ini and it seemed to be related to some entries in block [mainwindow]:

recentfiles
clipboardringhistory

But: after that I took the old sigil.ini again and it opens as quick as the new one, so

Weird.
I'll further investigate this and keep you updated.

*2014-01-02: UPDATE*
It just works. Never saw that behavior again, meanwhile there were way too much system changes, so I don't know the real reason of the issue I had before.
Anyway: Sigil rulez!
