Yeah, that would be the ideal; although the dialog box alone is close enough for my purposes that I don't overly mind lost state beyond that. There's the SessionSaver extension, but at least on my system it degrades Firefox performance from acceptable-if-sometimes-barely to just-shy-of-completely-unusable. Opera offers this out of the box without performance penalties, but damned if I can find any skins for it other than ones that only a Vogon mother could love.
