Apptabs disappear when you close the main browser window after opening a new window and continue to browse with that new window. I believe this is a critical bug as data/tabs/information is lost based how you use/exit the program. What makes this even worse is there is no quick way to restore or find these apptabs. Using the history window doesn't help as it treats apptabs as regular tabs.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have apptabs.
2. Open a new window. (notice the window doesn't have app tabs)
3. Close the window that has apptabs.
4. Browse a couple of webpages (I believe one is enough but it has to be done after closing the other window)
5. Close out Firefox.
6. Open Firefox and notice the lack of apptabs.
Actual Results:  
Apptabs are gone, no way to restore them, expect manually.

Expected Results:  
Apptabs should remain.
