Subject: [Qt-creator] default session in Session Management

Qt-Creator has the concept of Session Management, using which session can be created, deleted, switched. By default a session called "default session" is created. But when Qt-Creator is launched, it is not loading (making active) the "default session". As a result Qt-Creator is launched without any active session. So, if a project (say animatedtiles) is opened it is not assocaited with any session. When Qt-Creator is closed and reopened, it doesn't load that project (i.e. animatedtiles). This is the right behavior.

The way for the user to work is, launch the Qt-Creator and choose the session (Welcome->Develop->Resume Session->default). Then load the project. If the Qt-Creator is closed and reopened the state is preserved with "default session". If the "default session" is activated user can see the previosuly loaded project (i.e. animatedtiles).

Issues are

1. When Qt is launched why "default session" is not activated?. If this is done, then any project opened will be saved for next re-launch of Qt-Creator. This is going to give much better user experience as well, i.e. user can avoid loading the "default session" every time Qt_Creator is opened.

2. When Qt-Creator is launched current active session is indicated by, File->Session shows default session is active by indicating a blue dot. This is a false indication. File->Session navigation also seems to be a way of managing sessions, but when that option of File->Session->default is selected it's not loading the "default session"!.
