I think that to 'solve' this we should decide if there could be more
than one open editor. What if I open a new one, then close both, and
then open another? There are two 'last' objects in this case...

If the 'reopen last' feature is desired then the project object could be
a good place to store it. When used standalone (for library edit only)
some kind of noname/dummy project could be provided for it. Or maybe
only keep the last for edits done in the context of a project (no
project->no place to store the last one).
