hi,

some enhancement ideas might be pointlessly sophisticated, aiming a level of effortlessness that in real life never is a desired thing,

and one might think that "Session" could belong to this category, too...

however, if you keep it simple, it could serve a good workflow...


its goals should be and remain:
 
reopening the documents you're currently working on
sometimes reopening past sessions, or other sessions, i.e. another "bunch"

- - - - -


NOTE 1: this could be best done in the Publisher (that the Master document could evolve to be)

one of its functions could be to handle "bunches" of documents -- not necessarily incorporating all into a Master Document

In "Publisher" (in the future) it could get a column in the menu...
like "Project Files" (handling documents and objects, including exporting all of them as copies into a folder on request, when it comes to that, like in video editor software)


NOTE 2:
in Navigator it could dwell perfectly well :)


NOTE 3: a very simple version in Writer (not yet in Publisher :) ) of it in "File / Recent Documents" could be a very visible separator under the last document of the previous session
sessions, by extensive use has become a function in Firefox, for example, obsolete, cause just reopening the tabs from the last time is suffice, and works perfectly...

With "session" do you have something in mind like bug 146769 or bug 117237?
