Comment 12 for bug 219755

this bug is really annoying. It's been present since Firefox 2 (2006) and just caused me to lose about 20 tabs I wanted saved (incidentally, I was restarting Firefox to reset its memory use - which is still high when I open, read & then close tabs - an operation I typically have to do every 2 days or so).

Any chance of special-casing the plug-ins home-page dialog (perhaps creating a temporary profile for a separate instance), while the new application notification widget still isn't released?
