Details

We could perhaps add a flag in the detail object of the TabClose event that makes the SessionStore ignore the tab close in its handler here https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/8acfbe4ba09b46b91c862dc2fbc064d4fc1bac9a/browser/components/sessionstore/SessionStore.sys.mjs#1842
ignore = dont record it has a closed tab, still clean up state of course

This would help in ResetPBMPanel.sys.mjs where we close tabs for a PBM window which should not be recorded in the session store since the PBM session is restarted.
