PS Yay, and why not fix that bug as well? And what's wrong with FF warning me when closing multiple tabs AND having set up automatic session restore in Options? Can't both live at the same time happily in a browser??? Where is the problem?...

1. I can have FF 3.0 automatic session restore on every start-up (as in FF 2.0).
2. I can have 'Warning on closing multiple tabs'.
3. I *cannot* have them both in FF 3.0 (I could have them in 2.0, though?).

Where is the *problem*? Why this is so evil (option 3)?

Give some users option to WARN them on multiple tabs close, no matter if the session is saved or not!

Give the other users NO warning if they like it so, when they have activated session restoration to be automatic on every startup!

But don't *remove* choices, especially if they are wanted by some! (even if it should be done via about:config or plugin or preference).

This is the good way, I believe. I might be wrong, sure. Just expressed what I feel...
