User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Ubuntu; X11; Linux x86_64; rv:8.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0 Build ID: 20111115183813 Steps to reproduce: Using an addon (pentadactyl) that accesses the names of tabgroups, I restart the browser. Actual results: At first when trying to access the tabgroups, the addon can't see the names: http://i.imgur.com/1WcUn.png Once I've pressed the tabgroups view button http://i.imgur.com/eWKYh.png the names are accessible to the addon http://i.imgur.com/ZislP.png Expected results: The tabgroup names should be accessible without the overhead of actually going into TabGroup manipulation via some straightforward public API. The simple idea of being able to segregate tabs into groups should be separated from the complicated tabgroup editor. This complication may stifle other add-ons from being able to efficiently use tabgroups.

The add-on could use TabView._initFrame(function () { ... }) to make sure Panorama is initialized and then read the tab group names. That's a solution for now. We're working on bringing a TabGroups API to the browser that cares about the storage but not about the view (i.e. Panorama). You can track progress in bug 697959.
