I did. Firefox 2 didn't distinguish between closing the last window (which would be restored when restarting the app) and closing one of many windows (which wouldn't be restored). This is greatly annoying when attempting to quit the app by closing the window that's presumably the last one. The warning didn't help you figuring out if those tabs will actually be restored or lost. The UI including the preferences were easy to predict but far from efficient.

So I don't think reverting to the old behavior is an option. I guess many of you prefer it because you got used to it, but this doesn't make it less harmful. We need forward-thinking suggestions and as Gavin said, please file new bugs for them. If you don't have such suggestions, please double check if you're really adding something new and useful to this bug by commenting.
