For each such buffer? If so, that's again an annoyance. I don't really understand the rationale behind this design. How frequently (in time units) do you switch from one project to another? Unless you do that several times a minute, I cannot see why would we want this automation. Me, I change project maybe once or twice a day, sometimes once a week. With such a low frequency, I don't need the automation too much, but I do need the freedom to do project-related stuff from any buffer I happen to be in. Maybe I'm the odd one out.
