User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:106.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/106.0
Steps to reproduce:
Mint Linux with multiple work spaces and firefox windows on more than one.
Close the main browser (w/bunches of tabs), log out (not realizing other browsers windows open as they are not visible) - session history is toast and "Manage History" seems like a cruel joke.
This has repeatedly bit me in the ass (yeah, I'm a slow learner) and a tab manager only helps if I remember to use it (see above).
Actual results:
sessionstore-backups has a way back backup that misses a bunch of recently opened tabs (or maybe I got the wrong file or maybe I made several backups while trying to figure out how to restore session or maybe ...)
I don't think you should expect a USER to dick around in that directory.
Expected results:
I would like to see a "restore session" menu item (or just restore tabs), with several dated backups listed.
Please more than one backup as I thrash the browser (open/WTF/close/repeat).

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Session Restore' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.
