Window positions are forgotten when Bazaar Explorer is restarting

[André Bachmann]

Using bzr 2.3.3-3 with Bazaar Explorer 1.1.4 and Win7 32 Bit, tested with qbzr 0.20 and newest trunk.

The position and activation state of windows are completely forgotten when closing and restarting Bazaar Explorer application.

Bazaar Explorer opens like this: http://najut.org/~blackarchon/bzr-explorer-right.png
Then I close the toolbox and drag the working tree window to the left: http://najut.org/~blackarchon/bzr-explorer-left.png
After restarting Bazaar Explorer, it has forgotten my changes and looks like in the beginning: http://najut.org/~blackarchon/bzr-explorer-right.png

This issues is actually aggravated by the exceptionally narrow active region for dragging the window divider. When using my laptop and its low res touchpad I must often work for several minutes to find the very narrow hotspot where the cursor changes to the drag icon so that I can pull to the left and get enough of the file path visible so that I can see what file it is (in our deep source tree hierarchy). The issue is less of a problem on my workstation with its high res mouse, but its still a productivity drag. New users may be initially unaware that the window regions can be re-sized. Thanks, Jeff
