(Mozilla Labs Graveyard :: Personas Plus, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2a2pre) Gecko/20090810 Minefield/3.6a2pre (.NET CLR 4.0.20506)

If I close (ctrl+w) the getpersonas.com tab while previewing a persona PersonaService.resetPersona() is not called, thus i need to preview a new persona / change persona to go back to default / current persona.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Visit www.getpersonas.com
2. Preview a persona
3. Close getpersonas.com tab (ctrl+w)


Expected Results:  
PersonaService.resetPersona() should be called when closing a tab while previewing a persona.

I guess this could be fixed by adding an event listener for tab closings, and make it call PersonaService.resetPersona();

This also partially happens when opening a new tab (ctrl+t), but behaves quite different.

When opening a new tab with the keyboard the mouseover event is still triggering since the mouse hasn't been moved, you can see this by the mouse icon.

Just by moving the mouse a little, the event listener will notice that the mouse isn't hovering over an persona, and call resetPersona().
