Really? I am surprised to hear that.

I like to try to work with a single image as much as possible, and to
organize things I am working in in different projects and sub-projects,
in much the same way that I organize things into different directories
on Linux or Windows. I will usually keep several workspaces open in any
given project with notes and reminders that let me go back to something
I was working on a few month ago, and remember where I left off.

Of course I also keep different images for various reasons, but overall
I find that organizing things with projects within an image is a very
natural way to work.
