I disagree.
I often restart FF because of memory use bloat - a restart cleans up that
memory use somewhat. When I do that I expect all my history for each tab to be
retained, and to be able to undo closed tabs.
I might also need to reboot, and so a manual shutdown would not change the fact
that I'd want all these things retained.
Or I might have to restart because I installed an add-on, etc...
Personally, I'm not sure sessionstore.js is the big problem. I currently have
38 tabs, most not loaded. My session store size is 131,908 bytes according to
about:sessionstore, yet my Windows Task Manager reports ~450,000K of Mem Usage,
and a VM size of ~500,000K. Presumably because of add-ons I have installed and
other FF bloat? It is not uncommon for me to have over 100 tabs, and my wife
has had close to 1000 (obviously not fully loaded). I'd say she qualifies as a
power user. ;^)
