I think that this ties into your Persistence of preferences feature request. For now, persisting i_range and v_range will cause new users to be confused that the multimeter does not just work by default (it will saturate). I believe that I now understand your expectations that the software should behave as if you never stopped and started it. This means that you want the behavior I listed as (4). Unless the software persists all View settings, the software can’t do this without confusing people. I think (2) is the best option for now, then.
