As I have shared with Geoffrey, the commandline expression

  $ drscheme *.scm

opens all scheme files in a directory in tabs. I tend to organize
my projects in directories and doing the above usually does what I
want.

As for the saved state, a tool that you can plug in if you desire
this working mode is ideal. I have a difficult time imagining using
it. (For something like Preview, I see its usefulness, but there it
is a kludge for not being able to re-open the same file.)
