Comment(by mlennert):

 Sorry, my first report was apparently a bit too short:

 in g.gui.iclass the user defines the classes to be digitised by their name
 and color. Once at least one of polygon of each class is digitised and the
 result saved as a vector map, it is enough to just reload that vector map
 to get the class definitions.

 While working with g.gui.iclass I was confronted with #2439 and had the
 gui crash while trying to digitize polygons. Each time I had to redefine
 the classes. Not an enormous amount of work, but just enough of a nuisance
 to create an itch. And, without having looked at the code, I would imagine
 that offering the possibility to save / load the class definitions to /
 from a simple text file shouldn't be too difficult. This could be also
 useful for groups in which someone want to share class definitions.
