634859 - The "bookmark this page" star does not appear in every tab

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:2.0b11) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b11
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:2.0b11) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b11

I have some tabs which correctly display the gray or yellow bookmark star in the address bar and some tab which do not display it. Reloading one of those page makes the star to appear.

I have about 50 tabs getting opened at Firefox start-up (config option to display at start-up last used tabs) and it seems that the tabs on the left (probably the first to load) do not have the star, while the tabs on the right have the star. I have tried to switch a tab from the right to the left of the tab bar and then to restart Firefox. I then saw that it was the same tabs which miss the star, as if FF has kept the "missing star on that tab" information.

It seems that only gray stars were missing (none-bookmarked tabs).

By the way, I don't see the "bookmark all tabs" in the menu. I don't know if it is part of the bug.

Reproducible: Always

Check latest Firefox 4.0 RC please, I think this was a bug with session restore fixed in latest betas.
