Binary package hint: evince

Evince does not remember my settings. There are two issues here:

1. My settings should be saved automatically. Currently I have to select Edit -> Save current settings as default to save my settings. This is ridiculous. When I select a particular setting, DO NOT SET IT BACK. When I setup a program a particular way, I do that because I WANT IT THAT WAY.

2. Even when selecting "save current settings as default" the settings are NOT SAVED. Specifically:
- Window state (maximized/restored) is not saved (it always jumps back to restored).
- Zoom level is not saved (it always jumps back to fit page width)
- Toolvar visibility not saved
- And so on...
