My first session.

Instead of just killing the second instance I have to skilfully close
all views belonging to Project 2 to get back to the original state.

On the other hand if I manage to crash LyX with one Project suddenly
everything goes down...

And then we still have 'global' macros, so suddenly macros from Project
2 overwrite those from Project 1 which is especially nasty when they are
incompatible.
