Summary0000830: restore state
DescriptionIf I choose the restore state option after a crash the session the data is changed significantly. I have found it's safer to just save my session often and not use the restore crash data option.

For advanced users it's a pain but I imaginge it would be very offputting for n00bs. My suggestion is to give more information about the restore state option in the dialog:

ex.

"Restore state is experimental code. It should be used only when a session has crashed while *recording* important data. It's better practice to save your edits often and reopen the saved file if you experienced a crash while editing."
TagsNo tags attached.

also, there should only be crash data if the session crashed while the rec-enable button was on. there should be no pending data at any other time.

This seems somewhat resolved and there wasn't any more feedback anyways.
