Just to remind a triviality, it'd still be important to save the map a which 
the player has stoped playing lastly, so that he deosn't have to redo the 
whole capagin if he quits. (trivial)

Then, you might wonder wether you want to allow the player to re-play the maps 
he already won, or wether "past is past and already done". I'd encline to the 
second solution by default -- but again, we're GPL, so if people want that 
kind of settings different from what we havem they'll just change them.
