I also get this popup when I use "Close Other Tabs" in a tab's context
menu; this has nothing to do with "carrying out the Close Window
operation" and everything to do with closing multiple tabs.

It seems that the missing warning when quitting the browser aims at
avoiding two consecutive "Are you sure" popups if browser.warnOnQuit is
also set.

I'm using
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:15.0) Gecko/15.0 Firefox/15.0a1 
SeaMonkey/2.12a1 ID:20120505003004
with many extensions installed including "Duplicate This Tab" but not 
TabMixPlus which is (alas) not available for SeaMonkey.
