On attempt to switch back to an already active tab in order to securely close existing site sessions, form submissions, etc. before restarting Firefox, I found that I was unable to use existing tabs. Problem presented as the newly opened tab was not rendering any page (completely white). Clicking any existing tab would not switch from the newly opened tab. Clicking on "help - troubleshooting information" and "help - submit feedback" opened those tabs in the background but alas was not able to switch to those tabs to view them. I think this is a bug and user should be able to continue to use existing tabs to complete their existing sessions when a Firefox background update has been applied.
