Re: Window size/position won't stick and runaway favorites

Also note that if you have multiple workspaces, you can set some to
auto-save while browsing and others to not do so.

I keep my default workspace starting at a known point with my favorite
favorites while the other workspaces auto-save where I was last working.

I mention workspaces because perhaps they might help you avoid the
problem of opening too many items. I'd rather not have OW decide that
I'm possibly accidentally asking for too many things at once. How many
is "too many I better ask if it's okay"? My default opens 8 tabs, and
previous discussions here would suggest that I'm being very frugal.
