Turning off minimizes the *panel*, not all operation of Firebug
(since, I'm assuming, you are meaning minimized as "program on, panel
invisible" where I mean minimized only as "panel invisible").

Well, I would expect the panel state to be saved for that tab :) But I
think having it not showing on the following tab is preferable to
having it pop open when the previous tab set the precedent that the
Firebug *panel* is hidden.

That's the thing, you clearly cannot turn off Firebug on a page and
minimize it for other pages at the same time :) This even though the
panel itself hides when the Off button is pressed, which is counter-
intuitive, IMO :)
