An IDE should not guess about what is how long important to the user. 
When I quit today, and want to resume my work tomorrow, I appreciate to 
have my current bookmarks as I left them. I also would like persistent 
folding.

Depends on the context. Breakpoints, bookmarks and folding can be seen 
as project specific, but they also can be seen as file specific. Every 
IDE will have to specify the implemented handling, depending on 
reasonable thoughts. The best solution would make everything 
configurable by the user, with according save/recall features ;-)
