Followup to let you know what I decided for myself - I have switched from KDE to Gnome. I tried, but KDE4 is just not ready today.
I disagree, and I am always have been a gnome user.

Session save remains broken - still
There is a way of implementing a "manual" session save for gnome:

It is working just fine for me, even with compiz. I just need to click on a panel icon to send my terminals and applications to their appropriate locations.
Note that this works only for gnome-terminal 2.24 (F10). gnome-terminal 2.18 (F8) seems to not allow the changing of a terminal title.
