Yes, this is a subject I have complained a few times: DRM keeping the state. I think that will be a problem with many other properties too. An app could change a platform specific property, which no other app is aware of, and after that no other app would work correctly.
I believe each app has to know all the DRM properties and set them accordingly on startup, and/or each app has to reset the properties when exiting. Unfortunately I think both cases are not realistic.
I agree with you. I'd prefer restoring a sane default state on last close. Is there any reason not to do so ?
I have to say I can't remember, but it probably was about fbdev, legacy, on PCs you don't usually encounter problems related to this, or things like that.
