Suggested Amendments: 1.) for "browser.zoom.siteSpecific" = true: Don't Remember the zoom level for that website ! 2.) for "browser.zoom.siteSpecific" = true: Zoom all websites in ALL tabs (not just in the current tab) ! 3.) Create a new preference/boolean e. g. "browser.zoom.remember" which depends on "browser.zoom.siteSpecific": 3.1) for "browser.zoom.remember" = true: 3.1.1) in combination with "browser.zoom.siteSpecific" = true: save/remember the zoom level for this website for the future 3.1.2) in combination with "browser.zoom.siteSpecific" = false: save remember the zoom level for ALL websites in ALL tabs for the future. 3.2) for "browser.zoom.remember" = false: Don't remember any zoom level irrespective of "browser.zoom.siteSpecific" = true/false (thus always apply a zoom level of 100 % after FF restart). Reproducible: Always

From my point of view my bug is not a dup of bug 65571 (but maybe bug 65571 is a subset of my bug here). Differences to my bug: What I ask for is A) a basic zoom fuctionality (only specific sites vs. all sites in all tabs) without any remembrance functionality B) a new separate remembrance functionality (yes/no) depending on the chosen basic zoom functionality (only specific sites vs. all sites in all tabs) For your better understanding, why I opend this bug: When I zoom a specfic webpage only ONCE, I DON'T want "browser.zoom.siteSpecific" = true to remember this zoom level. I but can't tell FF. Bug 65571 requests the oposite: Remember the zoom level for all sites/all tabs/all sessions. Therefore I had the idea with the 2 splitted preferences (kind of zoom vs. remember zoom level) Can't understand why the user is not allowed to set zoom prefs as he needs :-( So isn't it worth thinking about / reopening ?
