It is some sort of history... but it's not a history it the way that you
need for undo and redo. It makes no sense to have a history of
operations like playback or setting the cursor. It makes no sense either
to open a file many times if you want to save a history of your
operations. One simple text file or a stack in memory would do the
trick.

Files opened many times - Open files never close

Bug description:
Ubuntu 10.10 (32-bit), OpenShot 1.2.2

When I was investigating another bug I noticed that OpenShot dealt with a couple of thousand open files. I closed OpenShot and opend a saved session. lsof showed every file opened twice. After playing around some time (adding images, resizing effects, playback some parts of the video) I reviewed the open files. lsof was showing over 4000 open files and every file was opend more than 10 times. I didn't help to wait half an hour (hoping that some sort of garbage collection would tidy up). I'm not sure if this is a normal behavior but it looks like a bug to me.
