I don't think so; there are two actions named ACTION_SET_ACTIVE_PROJECT but with different prefixes. The FileView one activates the MainWindow one as well as doing some local stuff. I'll check and see if this can be clarified.

Oof yeah, what's the reason for having two actions? Why can't we call the same one always?

The MainWindow action is called by two different FileView actions (ACTION_CLOSE_OTHER_PROJECTS and ACTION_SET_ACTIVE_PROJECT) and there is some pre- and post- processing specific to FileView involved so not sure if that's possible. I could change the name of the FileView action to avoid confusion I guess.

I have now lost the FileView action altogether and call the MainWindow one directly. Need to check for regressions but seems OK. There didn't seem a reason to re-write the opened-folders setting on changing active project and this way should improve consistency of behaviour.
Fixes #1523
Consistency of behaviour was improved by using the same MainWindow action to set the active project whether from the project chooser or the context menu and dropping a signal/handler that did much the same thing. Responsibility for updating the git_manager and collapsing the other projects transferred to MainWindow.
Note: To test you must manually set the active project and close/reopen the app in order to ensure the settings are updated.
