Project default directories
AE is pretty good at remembering last used directories. It remembers separate directories for import, scripts, render - it's really nice. But things get annoying when I'm working on a couple projects at the same time. I have to surf the file dialogs throughout the entire day.
It would be nice if in the project preferences we could have a checkbox saying that I want this project to use it's own default directories, and then I would be able to hardcode the directories for this given project.
So now, if a project doesn't have this option selected, it uses the current directory-memory-buffer that AE has, but if I open a project with this option selected, AE stops using the buffer but instead defaults to the hardcoded directories that are specified to this particular project.

And when I'm done and reopen a project without that setting, AE gets back to the memory buffer - which remembers the previously used buffer directories, not the hardcoded ones that were used by the just closed project :)
