#122: Exiting to the Main Menu loses UI state

     Type:  defect                     |      Status:  new  
 Priority:  major                      |   Milestone:  0.5.0
Component:  AI                         |     Version:       
 Keywords:  Simulation, UI, Main Menu  |  
---------------------------------------+------------------------------------
 Exiting to the main menu closes all of the Windows (and other Widgets).
 This means that critical windows (The Loading Screen) are lost.  This can
 make the game unplayable (The only option is to quit) since there is no
 way to progress.  All Window that pause the game partially have this
 problem since the game will be paused on the return.

 I suggest a UI::StoreState( ... ) and UI::RestoreState( ... ) or just
 making the UI a non-singleton.
