That seems like a good idea too.  I'll try putting together a patch
which uses define-multisession-variable for project--list.

If project--list becomes a minibuffer history variable and also is a
multisession variable, though, perhaps savehist-mode would interact
poorly.  (Then again, maybe instead of enabling savehist mode by
default, we should just define-multisession-variable file-name-history?)
