Now RELOAD (F5 or Ctrl+R) and you will reach page2 with page contents in RED and IFRAME contents still in BLUE (iframe url doesnt change to page 2 iframe url)

Reproducible: Always

I have modified test page to add another easy way to reproduce bug using window.location.reload() call.

steps:
1) visit http://www.opayq.com/firefox/page1
2) follow process in "bug scenario 2"

Happens when a page containing an iframe is redirected to another page (on reload/restart) and the target page also has an iframe.  iframe will still point to the url in first page instead of the url in redirected page.

I can reproduce this bug.  See comment 4 for most accurate description of the bug.  FWIW, I don't think it's a Session Restore bug.  As comment 4 points out, it is a bug with "redirect on reload with target with an iframe".  Session Restore "reloads" the content of any restored tabs.

I'm not sure what COMPONENT "redirect" bugs should go in though...
