will there be a persistent store capability, like SystemOptions, but for each project?

I'd like to have a facility for persisting selected UI information
entered by the user as they work within each project.  But it doesn't
need to be version controlled, and should just be stored on the user's
machine, similar to the current SystemOptions.  For example, I may want
to save previous entries made in a certain field, and make the field an
editable droplist so the user can choose a previous value, or enter a
new one; or I may want to persist the path the user took through a
wizard last time they ran it (wizard with step branches).  I do this
currently with help from SystemOptions, but in the projects world, I
think that saving how the user ran the UI last time, or what they
entered in a field last time, needs to be saved separately for each
project.

The projects file would be a good candidate for this, except that I
believe it will be persisted in a VCS, and the information I'm talking
about here shouldn't be in a VCS.

Will there be a way for the GUI to persist selected user actions and
entries within each project?

Thanks.
