The list of open projects is just a convenience for what to show in the Projects tab. You can do most operations just as well on a closed project if you, say, have a file from it open. Maybe it would be appropriate to add a warning when you create a new project group if you're not in an existing project group - "All open projects will be closed", or something like that? Ditto when switching to another project group with a project open in the "Project Group (none)" view.

Yes, that would make sense I think. Can be added pretty easily. > Ditto when switching > to another project group with a project open in the "Project Group (none)" > view. That is the same thing as not having a project group open.
