Public bug reported:
When Firefox crashes and is force quitted or just closes because of the
crash, it will normally remember the pages and cookies etc of the time
it was open before the crash so that one can resume one's previous
activities when starting it up again without having to reopen and
relogin to everything etc.
But sometimes I need to, say, restart my machine, or just temporarily
close the browser so that I have enough RAM for another big process. So
it would be very useful if there were an option somewhere, which like
with the close with the crash, would save the current state of the
browser so that one may return to that state when launching the browser
again. This option could maybe be slightly out of the way in a menu, but
not too hard to find. So that it's not the default, but one may use it.
