will the next version restore the very useful "Bookmark all tabs" option? This was the closest Firefox feature to Opera's "save session" option; I can't believe it was taken away.

Sometimes FF has crashed and lost its "memory" of the tabs I had opened. I want to have a backup in case that happens, so I know what tabs I had up and can restore them.

Some menu entries in the main menu bar are hidden if you use the mouse and only appear if you use the keyboard to open the menu (Bug 626825).

You can see the difference if you use Alt+F to open the File menu or other menus like the Edit menu (Alt+E) and Bookmarks menu (Alt+B) and compare that to what you see if you use the mouse to open the menu after you have made the menu bar visible by tapping Alt or by pressing F10.

  • "Bookmark All Tabs" (Shift+Ctrl+D) no longer shows in the Bookmarks menu unless you open the Bookmarks menu via the keyboard (Alt + B).
  • "Bookmark All Tabs" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of a tab on the tab bar.
  • "Bookmark This Page" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of that browser page.

Thank you very much. This solves my problem. I'm surprised I didn't realize it because I use the keyboard a lot - e.g. CTRL-D for bookmarking a tab - but I forgot about the CTRL-SHIFT-D for all tabs. In the absence of something like sessions this works, though I'm left to wonder why FF programmers made the odd decision to hide some menu items. Thanks again.
