When you press ctl+t in a firefox window that has no back, forward buttons and
no address bar etc, It opens a new tab, but completely abandones the other ones
you had open, you have no control over them.  Yet when you close the window, the
box comes up that says "you have two (or more) tabs open, are you sure you want
to close"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open an indipendant window (popup window with no address bar).
2. Make sure that something is displayed on the screen.
3. Press ctrl+t.
4. You can't get back to the last tab you were on.
5. Try exiting the window, it says you have 2 tabs open (one of them you can't 
    display)

Actual Results:  
Just as above

Expected Results:  
Either displayed the tab viewer in the window or disallowed the creation of a
new tab.

Using the 'Qute' theme.

Bug 143866 "Ctrl+T opens new tabs in tab-bar-less (popup, no toolbar) windows"
Bug 243893 "Open in Tab is unusable when menus are not present (tab bar is hidden 
in popup windows, leads to invisible tabs; esp for external apps)"
