Grid View does not persist across R sessions, even if dynamic evaluation is off

[mkoohafkan]

Consider the following statement:

View(rbind(mtcars, mtcars, mtcars))

If you restart the R session (or it crashes), you are no longer able to scroll through the grid view, even if the Dynamic Evaluation option is set to FALSE. If you attempt to scroll, the R console prints the error:

Error in `[.data.frame`(x, rows, cols, drop = FALSE) : undefined columns selected

Crashing the base R console would lose the View window anyway, so this behavior isn't wholly unexpected. But it would be nice if the grid could be cached in some way so that you could still look at it in the viewer even if the R session was lost.
