Not easy to fix, but I also concur - it should be fixed at some point.

Right now tool views are agnostic to their position. It's just saved that tool 
view X was in area Y at position Z (position == top, bottom, left, right).

Once we can restore the position correctly one could also hopefully make them 
uniquely adressable. I.e. consistent configs per view etc. pp. (think also 
toggle shortcuts).

Imo this should become a bugreport for KDevelop 4.1. Won't happen for 4.0 
sadly.
