To make it reappears just select in the world menu
object(o)/navigation/ThreadNavigator
this will give you a new ITNM and you'll see in the 'middle button' the name of your
Trhead... just select it.

Yes your are right.

You can save the ITNM as a morph (this will end up with a file .morph)
but this does not save the projects only the thread.
You probably can save all project of a thread but with a script on a workspace may
be you will have to create a method in InternalNavigationMorph to access the
instanceVariable 'listOfPages'.
