Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 174932

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, enhancement)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

while using the firefox browser, I had up to 5 tabs in use, then I had to
install a new extension, I had to close my FF brwoser. I got a dialog box
telling me I need to close the tabs.  So, I went ahead and closed the tabs. When
I started a new FF browser, all my previous tabs are gone. 

I wonder whether you can ask the user to save the tabs instead of just telling
the users  FF browser will close the tabs. So that when I bring up the FF
browser again, I would still have those wonderful tabs around? 

Would you please do this in your 1.1 release?

Thanks,

This is NOT a bug, but an enhancement requst.  It would be nice to have all my
tabs saved some where and I can get them easily.
