Description
Is it an idea to store all the settings variables in a file? Now we use navit.xml mostly for layout and design, but also for settings some variables. If we put those variables in a second file (settings.xml/txt) you can easaly save settings and. Now a lot of variables are from source.

Only thing that is stored right now is the active layout. Would be nice to have more "options" that can be saved.
some sugestions:
- Save current state at quit so Navit launches with same settings as last exit.
- 2d/3d
- Day/night
- Zoomlevel
- Active (map)layers
- Define zoomlevels-speed for auto_zoom
I short: Use navit.xml for layout and core settings, use gui_internal for (more)"custom" settings.

If you use gui_internal, navit reads commands from gui_internal.txt on start up. It even stores some settings made in internal gui, into that file.
Pleaase clarify your suggestion.
