From the end user perspective, after freezing a track, you have the option of 'unfreezing' it. It is quite odd that the option vanishes after reloading the session.

I understand that it is problematic. I don't know how the freezing is done architecture -wise, but here's a suggestion how you could handle this:

 1) Give playlists an attribute 'these plugins are applied' (and make streams
    respect it)
 2) When freezing, just create a new playlist with that attribute and
    select it as the active playlist.
 3) ??
 4) Profit!

I know there are a few holes in this but maybe you can build on it.

btw. It would be very nice that the freezed playlist would just be a new playlist anyway. It would be nice to still be able to switch between versions.

nice "guessing". freezing does indeed just switch to a new playlist, and the old one is available. we simply need to tag the new playlist with its "unfrozen" playlist name, and then switching is easy. will implement in the near future.

Great! What do you think, should the frozed playlists be read-only? Or, when recording on the frozen track, should we change automatically to the frozen one. Maybe even freeze afterwards?

(Okay.. I know I went a bit post-1.0 in the end..)
