Bug Description
I find I have to spend some time arranging the
interface every time I open Inkscape, doing the same
thing over and over: making the paint/stroke window and
the layers window visible.
My request is to make Inkscape remember all window's
visible/invisible status between sessions, so that once
a window is visible when inkscape is closed, it will be
visible again when inkscape is open.
I'm not sure if this should be document-specific or not
- probably not.

I really would like to see this feature too. I've worked around it by
assigning KP_1 through KP_5 to various dialogs I open every time I open
Inkscape via the default.xml file in keys. I don't do a lot of re-arranging
of the interface like michael_gr, since window sizes and position are kept
intact in the latest version of Inky, but it drove me crazy to do
ctrl-alt-F, ctrl-alt-O, etc., etc. every time I opened the application. I
was amazed to find that you couldn't set this preference via
preferences.xml. I'm guessing you might be able to do it via python
scripting, but I'm not familiar with Python, and while I'd like to know
more about Python, learning enough to write this script, just to save some
keystrokes seems like a lot of overhead.
