With Mozilla Firebird you can't specify which panel to show when opening the
preferences.

The openPreferences() function should have some parameter where you could
specify the panel to show.
By design, the preferences panel opens the last window opened.  Adding this
ability (I'm guessing for extension authors?) is an enhancement, not a bug.
