Steps to reproduce:

Call `tabs.activeTab` with no window open. (Our add-on code uses a WebSocket connection and needs to check for the activeTab exists to know how to handle messages).


Actual results:

When logging tabs.activeTab to console, it shows `[object Tab]`. All properties I poked at (id, index, url, title) were undefined.


Expected results:

tabs.activeTab should be null or undefined if no tab is open
Summary: tabs.activeTab returns wrapper object when no tab is open → tabs.activeTab returns wrapper object when no window is open

I would like to take this bug up as my first contribution and submit the patch. How do I get started?
This appears no longer to be the case. I see now that tabs.activeTab returns null when there is no open window in Firefox 48.0a2
Because of the difficulty finding mentors and the expected life span of the SDK, we are removing [good first bug] from remaining SDK bugs.
