486317 - Middle click on last tab in private-browsing mode closes browser, not session.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 456382

(Firefox :: Private Browsing, defect)

Description

[Mike]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-GB; rv:1.9.1b3) Gecko/20090305 Firefox/3.1b3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-GB; rv:1.9.1b3) Gecko/20090305 Firefox/3.1b3

Im not sure if this will apply, as there may be some UI changes with private browsing in the future, but i found this one on my beta 3.

Anyway, using middle click closes tabs, and middle clicking the last tab closes firefox.  However, middle clicking the last tab in private browsing mode, closes firefox too, even if other, non-private, tabs are open.  I believe middle clicking the last tab in private browsing should kill that session and not the entire browser.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start firefox, open a few tabs and load some pages on them
2. Start private browsing mode by pressing "Ctrl+Shift+P"
3. Open a few pages while in private mode.
4. Close each page, one by one, with the middle click function.
Actual Results:  
The last tab closed, and the entire browser exits with other non-private tabs as well.

Expected Results:  
should close the private mode session, not the entire browser.

My first bug report.

[Ria Klaassen (not reading all bugmail)]

I see this indeed, but also in normal mode. I think this bug is fixed on trunk, but not yet on branch. So a duplicate of a fixed bug.

Yes, this looks like a duplicate of bug 456382, which was fixed on the 1.9.1 branch on 2009-03-29.

Mike, Ria: can you please try to reproduce this using a recent 1.9.1 nightly?
