This bug is different than Bug 244871. This issue actually causes dataloss by closing sites that you once had open. Is "Open in Tabs" really meant to wipe clean the user's browsing session, creating dataloss and closing windows without warning?

Confirming on trunk. Can anyone confirm if this also occurs on AVIARY_1_0_20040515_BRANCH ?
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
This is in Aviary and 0.8, it's not a regression, see: http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/browser/components/bookmarks/content/bookmarks.js#631

Yes, open in tabs in the default setting is expected to open that group of links, replacing all of the open tabs, regardless of whether its 2 or 20. There is a bug to make tab groups back of the history stack so that you can hit back and restore the previous group of tabs. if you want to argue the default behaviour, there's another bug on that issue (append vs. replace) but I doubt you'll win on that.

This happens even if browser.tabs.loadFolderAndReplace is false. Shouldn't it not close extra tabs when this pref is set to false?
