Animation Window state save is inconsistent

[Mark_E...@adobeforums.com]

Photoshop 10-E does not consistently save the state of the animation window. Often it opens in Timeline mode, which means I have to set it to Frames mode, change the loop mode, and change the default frame timing, before I can even start work. I'm guessing that it's designed to save state because it does so about half the time. This is not a big issue but it's annoying and it's just one of many small annoyances that are making this version a pain in the ass to use.
I've tried saving a workspace but it doesn't appear to save the state of the animation window, at least not consistently.
Any suggestions about how to fix this?
