+ A snapshot is nothing more than a new session file. It still references the
+ same audio and automation data as the primary session file.

+ <note>
+ <para>
+ Saving a snapshot does not change the status of the current session. It
+ does not change what will happen when you choose <menuchoice>
+ <guimenu>Session</guimenu> <guisubmenu>Save</guisubmenu> </menuchoice> at a
+ later time. Note that a snapshot is not a new session.
