What happened to the save & exit????

On my mac I have OS X 10.6.7 and I have Firefox version 4.0.1. With the previous version of Firefox, when I quit Firefox I could save and exit the window tabs. This version does NOT let me do that. Why? I like that feature. How do I activate that function again?

Restoring tabs from a lost session is now done after restarting through the History menu ("Alt+S") with “Restore previous session”.

You can still have the old messages, to make sure you get your tabs restored immediately, but with or without the messages and whichever way you respond to the message you can still get back your previous session through the History menu.
