Public bug reported: When restoring from many windows and tabs, windows flicker around for a while. This includes windows that were minimised when Firefox was closed. The window opens then minimises a moment later, unless it is the original window which stays unminimised.
Tested on Natty. Steps to reproduce: * Start a guest session. * Launch Firefox. * Edit Preferences to 'Show my windows and tabs from last time'. * Hold Ctrl-T for a second. * Load a specific page to make a note of the original window. (Ex: ddg.gg) * Press Ctrl-N. * Hold Ctrl-T for a second. * Repeat the previous 2 steps until there are 10 windows in total. (See screenshot '10-windows.png') * Press Super-D. * Press Alt-Tab. (See screenshot 'all-but-1-minimised.png') Notice that only 1 window is unminimised and it isn't the original. * Press Ctrl-Q. * Launch Firefox. (See screenshot 'bugs-on-restore.png') Notice the flickering of windows appearing and minimising. Notice that the original window is unminimised, so there are now 2 unminimised windows. Minimised windows shouldn't even appear; they should /start/ minimised. The original window should also stay minimised. Other bugs: I expect you will also trigger this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/803831 Notice also that in half of the windows, globalmenu-extension stops working.
