session support for todo plugin

[naoliv]

Sometimes I am editing some data with pending tasks in ​TODO and some commented or "closed" notes (not yet sent, since the data isn't uploaded).
Then, I need to locally save what I am doing and close JOSM, but with one problem: every pending task is lost and every pending note is also lost.

Could we have some way to save the status of some plugins together with the osm file, so the user could continue the tasks and notes from where he has stopped, without needing to find them again or upload some incomplete objects, please?

Please make only requests for one plugin / component per ticket! We have a system in JOSM to save and reopen the entire editing session. Currently this feature mainly focuses on layers. Saving the todo list would be in that spirit, but will probably require some extensions in JOSM core.

A session file is a zip archive with one "bookkeeping" file (session.jos) and several data files in it. What will be required for this, is a way to export the todo list to a data file and load it back from file (since large amounts of data should not be stored in the main "bookkeeping" xml file).

TODO plugin is unmaintained, see ​https://github.com/Gnonthgol/JOSM-todo

Creating tickets on Trac is useless, can you please file a Github issue instead?

Replying to bastiK:

I thought that saving all the session info/data was something internal to JOSM (and that is why I did open it against JOSM itself, and not individually for each component).
I will open an issue in JOSM-todo's github and another one against Core notes later.
