Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:8.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0 Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:8.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0 Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:8.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0 Beta 4 build "Don't load tabs until selected" preference applies also for other startup options at browser restart (after enabling/disabling an add-on) STR: 1. Go to Tools>Options> Startup 2. Select "Show my windows and tabs from last time" near "When Firefox starts" 3. Enable "Don't load tabs until selected" 4. Change to "Show my homepage" or "Show a blank page" for "When Firefox starts" 5. Go to add-ons manager 6. Enable/Disable an addon 7. Press "Restart now" Actual result: Tabs load only when selected. If "Don't load tabs until selected" is disabled at step 3, tabs load at restart. Note: On previous Fx versions (e.g 7.0.1) a restart will cause to load all tabs. Expected result: IMO, Fx8 should have the same behaviour as previous versions for "Show my homepage" and "Show a blank page" startup options. Only the "Show my windows and tabs from last time" should have a changed behaviour when "Don't load tabs until selected" pref is enabled.

Is this still valid since the option was moved to the "Tabs" page?
