The functionality described in my previous post is the one every other application that remembers folders takes. It is also what is specified in the Windows User Experience guide (and Apple's HIG too, I think), which I tend to follow.

Your idea of storing the locations of folders you are loading content from directly into a file format does not appeal to me. Sometimes I have to say "No" to feature requests, and this seems to be one of those times.

Please don't be offended by that.
