Switching from desktop to metro immediately after opening a new page will not show the new page on metro since the state isn't saved before switching.

[Approval Request Comment]
Bug caused by (feature/regressing bug #): Part of bug 924860

User impact if declined: Opening a new tab in Desktop Firefox and immediately switching to Metro will result in that tab not showing. (Same with closing a tab, clicking a link, etc)

Testing completed (on m-c, etc.): Tested and works on mc

Risk to taking this patch (and alternatives if risky): Low risk, it only affects the switch-to-metro code and is a minor change

String or IDL/UUID changes made by this patch: none

Verified on latest nightly (build ID: 20140108030203) and on latest aurora (build ID: 20140108004006).
Switching from desktop to metro immediately after opening a new page will show the new page on metro and same for closing a page and switching to metro (the page will not be shown).
