Hi
Are you telling that the server codebase could rely on these features (multiproject management and layer cache) with
the actual refactoring ? This would be really a good thing - (and also a better handling of the layer registry that introduces weird
things with the ownership of layers).
Afaik, trying to genuinely load a project in a headless qgis leads to a crash, and this why the server had to
manage things on its own.
Regards
David
