+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #587400 +++

When opening a page in a new window, the app tabs are not included. This is logical as it would cause too long of load times. However, if the windows are closed, and the new window, with no app tabs is closed last, the app tabs disappear.

I have not worked on the mozilla code, so I do not know if there is a difficulty, but I would like to make the following suggestion:

Ask the user in the Settings if they want to save pinned tabs (when Firefox restarts, the pinned tabs reopen).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. open browser
  2. open link in new window
  3. close old window
  4. close new window.

Actual Results:

No pinned tabs.

Expected Results:

Pinned tabs would reopen at Firefox start.

Type: defect → enhancement
Summary: Closing a pinned-tab less window last removes all pinned tabs → Pinned tabs close when a new window is closed last

Bug 587400 is already tracking this, no point in cloning that bug.
