I just hope he means session restore. It's highly annoying that GNOME just seems to have given up on that - not just because I HATE that Shell doesn't restore my session but also because it's a central piece of tech for KDE's awesome Activities and GNOME apps simply don't work with that now.
The argument for ditching it was 'it never worked properly anyway'. That's a rather bullshit argument, I'd say - "we were never capable of doing it right so we give up" is not what I expect to hear from a decent engineer... Esp if the competition (KDE) is doing it just fine.
