You are correct. Our plan is to (optionally) make select parts of the filesystem persistent [1] with the data saved on a second, encrypted partition on the USB drive Tails is installed to. This is finally planned for inclusion in the next major Tails release, which is scheduled for release in late April. Cheers! [1] Examples: email/IM configurations, gpg/ssh/otr keyrings/configs, Tor cache (for entry guards), a general data storage. For more, see: https://tails.boum.org/todo/persistence/#index1h2
