(Whiteboard: [8b6])

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:8.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0 STR: 1. "Don't load tabs until selected" pref is enabled. 2. Have some tabs open (at least 5) 3. Close Firefox and restart it again => only the focused tab starts to load 4. Move the focus to another tab => page starts to load 5. Disable "Don't load tabs until selected" option 6. Move focus to an unloaded tab Expected result: Only the selected tab should load. The other unloaded tabs should not load until selected. Actual result: All unloaded tabs start to load.

I don't think this is a bug as reported. Actually, we should probably listen for pref changes and when (5) is done just start loading all the tabs that wait to be restored.
Component: Preferences → Session Restore
Version: 8 Branch → Trunk
Summary: Change of "Don't load tabs until selected" pref is applied in the same session → Disabling "Don't load tabs until selected" should start restoring pending tabs
Severity: normal → S3

I don't think this is still a valid bug as reported in comment 0 with the latest latest builds since the "Don't load tabs until selected" option is no longer available. I'm going to close this as WFM.
