Title:
  evince 'dual' setting does not persist across documents

Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evince

  At some stage between Jaunty and Lucid the behaviour of evince in
  representing documents has changed for the worse.

  Previously evince kept the setting for 'Dual' from the last opened
  document, while now every new document is opened with the default
  state of not-'Dual'. I understand that this was probably a feature
  design decision and that defaulting to non-'Dual' is more sensible
  than 'Dual', however it is very irritating when a large screen is
  being used that could other wise be utilised to view both pages.

  A feature request would be to have a global default preference that
  allows the choice to be made by the user for all new documents.
