Can I save my window layout in Netbeans 7.2?

Tags:

As tabs tend to open inside wrong windows after some time, it would be helpful to store a preset layout in order to go back if things get messed up.

For example, if I am positioned in a run tab in the Output pane and open up a source file by double clicking in the project browser, the source file opens up in the tab in the Output pane instead of the main Editor window

In menu Window, there is the option to Reset Windows, which fixes this bug. But then all my window customizations are lost.

So - I haven't figured out how to store my current window configuration. A rather nifty solution (e.g. backing up xml files) is acceptable.
