Details

There was IRC chatter about now showing an undo toast notification for 'about:home' when closing an 'about:home' tab.

Glad we found out the cause for about:blank in bug 1018661.

Really, is it worth doing this? Would users be surprised/upset by this toast showing for about:home? I don't like the idea of adding another place where we special-case about:home, and I also feel like this would make the browser behave inconsistently. If you close a tab, we give you the option to undo that - it shouldn't matter what's in the tab.

Yeah agree with Margaret -- I'm not sure why we would explicitly not show an undo toast for about:home tabs.

OK. Let's just watch feedback.
