related extension:
http://www.pikey.me.uk/mozilla/?addon=bb back up firefox profile files & settings
Session Manager is integrated / provides a better GUI for Firefox' integrated Session Management.
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2324/
"This extension replaces SessionSaver and Tab Mix Plus' session manager. It stores more data than both of them and should be more reliable in saving and restoring. Although it is not recommended to have more than one session related extension installed, Session Manager is compatible at least with Tab Mix Plus."
