Public bug reported:

StateSaver is meant to be a mechanism to restore the state of an app
when it has been previously killed by the OOM killer.  This helps the
user maintain context in the case of switching back to an app that was
killed without user intervention.

However, if an app is quit gracefully, like swiping away to close in the
shell, the state should not be restored.  The user should be presented
with a default view of the application.  For example, if previously quit
by the user the gallery shouldn't be started in the view photo view, but
instead in the events view.  Currently this is broken, it will start in
whatever view it was last in before the user intentionally quit the app.
