One of the big new features in the upcoming OS X Lion is auto-resume for all applications. The feature comes from iOS where the distinction between open and closed apps is blurred, as every app will resume right where you left off.
From Apple's OS X description of the Resume feature:
Update: Alternatively, you can now turn Resume off in Lion as a global setting, but not per app. This setting was added recently:
From Apple's OS X description of the Resume feature:
Now apps you close will reopen right where you left off, so you never have to start from scratch again. And when you install software updates, you no longer need to save your work, close your apps, and spend valuable time setting everything up again. With Resume, you can restart your Mac and return to what you were doing with all your apps in the exact places you left them.
Jeremy Laurenson, however, writes about a potentially embarrassing situation he ran into while running OS X Lion. Laurenson reports that he and his wife had been watching his wife's delivery in Quicktime Player and later quit the application. In OS X Lion, this saved the state of the video and windows, leaving him a surprise when he later launched a movie for a colleague:Imagine my surprise (and luckily nothing crazy was on screen) when I double-clicked to open a different video file to show a colleague and the ole delivery video popped right up as well.
Laurenson sees this causing "all kinds of issues" as people adjust to the new system. Update: Alternatively, you can now turn Resume off in Lion as a global setting, but not per app. This setting was added recently:
