Standalone Builder not remembering last build folder

No... the standalone builder makes no effort to remember the previous build
folder chosen for an application. It asks for a folder every time. This was
by design. This could be a bug to mark against the answer folder command
though so I'm checking it out.

Well... the idea of always asking was by design but I can see how it would
get annoying if you did alot of builds into the same folder. Please add this
as an enhancement request to bugzilla.
