Mac: state not remembered during sessions

When logging out and logging in, VLC does not remember its state. If the program is running during logout, it is started on login, but not more than that.

I expect VLC to remember:

1. Window state. Minimized/not minimized, size
2. Opened files
3. Player state
4. Seek length

The current implementation prevents this behavior actively for privacy reasons. If you manage to implement this cleanly (and with an option to disable it), a patch would be more than welcome.

added Difficulty::medium Type::feature labels

changed milestone to %Features paradize

What is the privacy reason?

(There's something wrong with the SSL certificate for this page by the way.)

Well, a significant number of our users does not want to have his/her movies restored the next time they launch VLC. Seriously.

Anyway, I just looked around and this ticket is a duplicate of #4550 (closed).
