After reading Fons' mail I was about to reply that one could
simply save the initial view and then later on restore it.
But, to my astonishment, 'goto view ...' doesn't restore UI state.
I have to admit that I never used views before, but wouldn't that
be the mechanism to use?

BTW, my recent Ardour checkout seems to fix a longstanding issue
with starting Ardour in a maximized window (the ardour log window 
would constantly come in front of the main window which would then
be put in front of the log etc.). Thanks for the fix.

 Cheers RalfD
