Bug 1191368 notes a bad restore experience: we get in the way of the user when we have to cold-boot and restore your session.

That bug is now about making sure we don't get in the way of navigation during this restore. But another abrasive experience is still there: we show the iOS persisted screenshot, then we come to restore the page and show you plain white, flicker the controls a little, and then the page loads.

We should do better here, recognizing that we're restoring a page from a previous session. That might be showing a greyed-out snapshot like Chrome does, or something else.

Over to UX!
