Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
GNOME has a session manager that can record what softwares were running when the session was closed, to restore them next time a session is opened.
While Epiphany (based on Gecko) is compatible with it, Firefox (Firefox 2 in Gutsy or Firefox 3 in hardy alpha 5 for instance) is not.
I know that Firefox makes use of Xul whereas Epiphany uses GTK+
Does it mean that GNOME session manager can't work with Firefox or is it a bug ?

Thanks for your report, that works fine for me with latest package on Hardy Heron, closing this report feel free to re open it if you have specific instructions on how to reproduce the problem and you can reproduce it with a new user and firefox profile created on your computer. thanks.
