Yes. Well, there's a bit of a fine distinction between being managed and
being part of the session. The application could conceivably receive a
'quit' message before the 'open' message, but that would never actually
happen in the current implementation and doesn't make a lot of sense
anyway. I think you're probably right in that for all practical purposes
'open' is the time to consider the application managed.
Are you seriously saying that the equivalent of
doing:
if ( nsm_is_active )
save_here( file );
else
save_there( file );
Would require a complete rewrite and overhaul of your application? Say
you
don't want to do it... That's fine. Say
you don't like the NSM
design--that's fine too. But don't just make up wild hyperbole out of
laziness...

A question: according to the docs, a client should consider itself
'managed' after receiving the reply to the 'announce' message. But
at that time it has no path to save anything 'New' or 'Load'ed.
If I understand the docs correctly, the 'open' message specifying
this path will follow immediately. But still this is a possible race
condition. So shouldn't a client consider itself managed only after
having received the first 'open' message ?
