Hi Quiliro,

Well, things that are to be preserved between sessions have to be
saved in files... intro buffers are sandboxes and don't have files
associated to them, so we can't save things in intro buffers. I use my
~/TODO for all kinds of messy notes that haven't been categorized yet,
so for me it is natural to save links "that I will want to open in the
next session" at the end of my ~/TODO...
