Pinned tabs on all windows

When I close the firefox window containing a pinned tab before my other firefox windows, the pinned tab does not open the next time I start firefox. (I have selected 'Show my windows and tabs from last time'.) Hence, it would be nice if it were possible for pinned tabs to: be on all windows, be on the active window, or transfer to another window when the first window is closed.

Is this possible? Is this considered for a future release? Thanks in advance for responses.

You can have different sets of pinned tabs on each open window.
Best is to get used to using Firefox > Exit to close Firefox and not the close X on the title bar to make sure to close all open windows at once.
