we discussed this some months ago and decided to only rename to save disk space 
and to
be a fast operation. If user explicitly start a new project, another Untitled 
tree is created

the ideia is to put some kind of "LAST_PROJECT=ProjectAAA" in .protuxrc file , 
so next time
protux restarts, it will automatically open it. Protux is opening only the 
untitled become this
is not implemented yet..
