IMHO, session is the wrong name for it, as it implies that the plugins i've 
disabled will become enabled again the next time i start KDevelop. 

Since I'm sure i missed the initial discussion (or it took place on IRC, which 
despite my constant presence in channel, I rarely pay attention to), could you 
go over the initial feature again please or tell me where to search the 
archives? :)

Thanks
