it is disabled like so because current implementation is fubar on qtractor

a not so short answer: the lv2-state-files extension feature it's all
about making lv2 plugin full state serialized through session data files
and folders, porbably making it all portable across machines and stuff.
ardour might work this way (all session media adata is under a session
directory), but qtractor doesn't (all media files are links to anywhere
on your file-system, until you the user say he/she wants to store them
later in a .qtz zip/archive, being that an option, not the norm)

as things are atm. if you turn it on at configure time, the lv2-state
extension won't live to its prospect from qtractor pov. :)

to my knowledge, linuxsampler-lv2 is the only one which supports all
that, provided you source it from the bleeding-edgy svn trunk.

and now for the fun part: drobilla might ask sooner or later to fubarize
all that xD scnr.
