An example is lv2rack with the IR lv2 plugin, which
i've been testing
in NSM. LV2rack comes up ok, but the preset i've built for a specific
session doesn't automatically load. I assume this is the case when using
something like LV2rack in other session managers too.
It should be noted that IR does some terrible kludges for saving state
that make it impossible to store its state portably (it saves to a
config file in a location unknown to the host and saves a hash into that
file across several float control ports).
However, the new LV2 state stuff is specifically designed to allow
self-contained archival/export with any session manager[1]. Hopefully a
future version of IR will move to it. I don't know anything about NSM's
facilities for export/archival, though.

[1] My preferred implementation is using symlinks to refer to external
files, so any tool, even tar -h, can archive correctly. KISS.
