But that's the whole problem: what do you define as "where we stopped"?
As I said, there are as many current directories as there are buffers.

> Who knows what other/future packages save in the current directory?

There's really no such thing as "Emacs's current directory".

Then desktop should save the default-directory of *scratch* (and
maybe/probably other buffers as well).  IIUC you can do that by adding
default-directory to desktop-locals-to-save.

But "--chdir" is too simplified, Emacs has many more current directories
than just "the one" ;-)
