Need widget to retain last location in Vault client

My company currently uses Meridian as our document management system and is in the process of migrating to Autodesk Vault. One cool feature in Meridian is that I can turn on a couple of settings so that when I close the Meridian client and then open it back up, it immediately takes me to the last file or folder I had selected. This saves a bunch of time because the user doesn't have to drill down to that file or folder.
My question to you is, has anybody written a widget for Autodesk Vault to accomplish the same thing? My thinking is to capture the OnClose (or whatever it's called) event of the Vault client, determine what file or folder is currently selected (if any), and then store that information in the registry somewhere. Likewise, when the client OnOpen (or whatever it's called) event is triggered, read that registry key, and then select that file or folder.
Right now, my users are going to have a fit if I don't have that functionality for them when we make the switch so I was hoping that somebody had already come up with a solution and would be willing to share it with me.
Thanks in advance for your help!
