Package: galeon
Version: 2.0.2-4
Severity: normal

Quite often, I leave Galeon running on one workspace whilst doing work
in another workspace or even overnight.

With Galeon still running in one workspace from a session started some
time before, starting Galeon in a second workspace brings up the
dialogue about a crashed session and asks if the session should be
reloaded or discarded. The session concerned IS the session that is
running perfectly well in the other workspace. I don't really want to
discard that, neither do I want to have exactly the same session in
this workspace (I could just switch back to that workspace to achieve
that). I don't log out or bookmark the pages because there is usually
other content in terminal windows and other programs that I want to
retain until I have time to deal with the issues.

Galeon should be able to detect that this is not a new session but an
extension to the existing session across multiple workspaces and stop
discarding sessions.

There does appear to be some time limit involved in this bug - simple
testing with multiple workspaces will not show the problem, it appears
that at least one workspace has to "go stale" with some kind of time
limit - it may simply be overnight - before the dialogue is shown. Once
shown, starting other galeon processes in other workspaces does not
show the bug - until the next time limit.
