If you shut down with the Debug perspective active and restart you end up with the Java perspective showing. Also, some interaction at the rendering level leaves the shared editor area empty.

We may want to factor this so that it doesn't over write the 'default' perspective field.

Take a look at this, perhaps we should be adding more utility methods to determine things like this (introspecting the model is the right thing to do here, it knows what state it was in when it shut down so we shouldn't need to cache this anywhere...)
