Details

Open a page in reader mode, switch to a different tab, and restart.
After the restart, the restored reader mode tab has lost its title. Instead, an about-reader URL is shown.

On second thoughts, should this bug actually be in the session restore component?

I don't know. Tim, any idea why this doesn't Just Work ?

Can't reproduce with a trunk build. Any more details you can give? Does it happen with any URL or just some articles?

It does not seem to happen when I restart a session with only a few tabs open.

When there are many tabs to be restored, so startup takes O(seconds), it happens, but not consistently and not necessarily for all reader-mode tabs. So there is probably some async issue involved. The exact URL doesn't seem to make a difference.

I've noticed the about-reader URL *also* briefly but noticeably appears as the title when clicking on a restored tab with the correct title, while the page is being loaded.
