    This has an easy explanation. The «Save Session» appears depending
    on the settings under Control Panel -> KDE Components -> Session
    Manager.

    There are three options for "On Login" there:

        a) Restore previous session
        b) Restore manually saved session
        c) Start with empty session

    The «Save Session» entry gets into the menu only and only if (b) is
    selected, which makes sense: if you are to use automatically saved
    sessions, there is no point in saving a session since you would not
    be able to restore it afterwards.

    HTH.

    P.S.: BTW, I used to use "manually saved sessions", but I've found
    the session support has improved a lot in 3.2, with the possibility
    of specifying windows to ignore, etc., so I now use (a) my self.
