1327063 - Opened History panel doesn't update when I close/restore tab

Status: NEW

(Firefox :: Session Restore, defect)

Description

[arni2033]

>>>   My Info:   Win7_64, Nightly 49, 32bit, ID 20160526082509
STR_1:
0. Move history toolbarbutton to toolbar
1. Open this url in a new tab:   data:,a
2. Open history panel
3. Close the tab opened in Step 1

AR:  History panel doesn't display tab from Step 1
ER:  History panel should display tab from Step 1, because it's the last closed tab


STR_2:
0. Move history toolbarbutton to toolbar
1. Open url  "data:,a"  in a new tab. Open url  "data:,b"  in a new tab.
2. Close tab with "data:,b". Close tab with "data:,a"
3. Open history panel
4. Press Ctrl+Shift+T to restore tab with "data:,a" (last closed tab)
5. Click on the item "data:,a" in history panel

AR:  Step 4 - history panel displays item "data:,a".
     Step 5 - I clicked item "data:,a", but browser restores tab with "data:,b" (See? It IS confusing)
ER:  Step 4 - history panel shouldn't display item "data:,a", because I just restored it


Note:
 See bug 1171746. I think that after bug 1171746, history panel should stay when I switch tabs.
 But yeah, hiding the panel on switching tabs will also fix this...

Even if it's in the history widget, this is about restoring tabs.
Looks like the restore tabs list doesn't update dinamically, but only on opening.
