Fwiw, our handling here is all toolkit, but I don't know enough to delve
deeply on this
I updated #658936 to Toolkit/Password Manager.

As you cite in that bug, it could be a Core issue, but I would be
interested if you (or anyone) can come up with more reliable proof of
concepts and/or triage of that one.
I somehow suspect we are saving this internally on a per-site basis
since our change to newer Gecko. But I'm not sure, and I wouldn't know
why the pref is not carried forward in future sessions. [I don't
typically zoom webpages, unless its temporary anyway].
Several things about zooming, not all merely affecting tabs --
1. I can reliably recreate the problem with zooming a parent tab
affecting its first child and vice versa.
2. I would expect that, when I close a tab, all zooming within that tab
would be forgotten. This is not happening.
3. I would expect that, when I zoom a page and it is the ONLY tab, that
the zooming would remain in effect until I either cancel the zooming or
terminate SeaMonkey. Instead, zooming seems to follow the domain of the
page to which it originally applied. If I select a link from a zoomed
page to a Web page at another domain, zooming is not applied. If I then
go to another page at the same domain as the originally zoomed page,
zooming is again applied. Without keeping track of what domain I am
about to visit, this is extremely annoying. (Actually, it is very
annoying even if I keep track of the domains.)
4. I would expect that, when I terminate SeaMonkey (all instances), all
zooming would be forgotten. This is not happening. Zooming is
remembered (as in #3 above), for the domain in which it was applied
during a previous session.
In SeaMonkey 2.0.14, zooming applied in only one tab. It remained in
effect for all pages viewed in that tab until cancelled. It also
remained in effect until the tab was closed or the browser was
terminated, after which zooming was forgotten.
It appears that the zooming is applied to a domain and is remembered for
that domain. This would explain the transfer of zooming from a parent
tab to a child tab. I only tested with pages all from the same domain
when I wrote the bug report. I am closing bug #658936 and submitting a
new bug that better describes the problem and presents a less
complicated test case.
You not using an extension called NoSquint?
In NoSquint you adjust zoom level of everything, and also fonts
separately. once you set it. remembers setting for each website that
are tweaked differently otherwise yo set in General. Usually the in
General setting are enough.
I couldn't read anything on websites without the aid of NoSquint.
