This is not so easy. Also in this case the project file is saved (to the
temp folder) and will be automatically delete at the end of the
stitching process.

So there is no easy way to detect if the project file was intentionally
saved or not and so these option can not implemented.

Also, what is the last used directory? Only the directory given in
Hugin? What is about hugin_stitch_project alone? And what is when using
the command line (pto2mk)? So there is no easy way to detect the "last
used directory".

The default "%projectname" is the default for the PTBatcherGUI (the
default). When changing the settings the user is responsible for adopt
all related settings. There are other settings which may be more
approbate in this scenario.

PS: The output prefix can also contain a path. So you can also specify a
fixed path.

Title:
  Hugin should remember last used destination folder

Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  In one instance of Hugin I add an equirectangular image, reproject it to linear and render it to a folder, say /home/bob/photos/panoramas/foo
  Then I delete that image, add a new one, reproject it, render to /home/bob/photos/panoramas/foo
  I use hugin_stitch_project so that I don't have to do the annoying and of no use to me step of saving the project.
  The problem is that I need to go to /home/bob/photos/panoramas/foo every time I click "Stitch!". Hugin should remember the last-used folder - it does not.
  The "default output prefix" in Preferences is "%projectname" but seeing as I did not save the project, the last-used folder should be remembered.

  So one solution is for Hugin to remember the last-used folder when the
  project has not been saved. Another solution is for a "%lastused"
  option to be added to the "default output prefixes".
