Remember Unloaded State Between Sessions

[assumptionsoup]

It would be nice if there was an option under the "When restoring tabs from a previous session" selection to "keep previous state." That is, to keep the timeouts and unloaded state of each tab remembered between sessions. Just a thought - I know I'm probably in a very low minority who would want this feature.

I was going to suggest something similar: When restoring tabs from a previous session, it'd be nice if the pages I've specified to always keep loaded were reloaded but not the others. I think your suggestion would do about the same?

@reidr it seems this is already working like that for me. if I close firefox saving opened tabs session and then reopen it, all tabs are unloaded except the last one i was viewing and the tabs marked as "keep pages loaded"

giuppi, looks like you're right! I just tested on my work Windows computer. I'm pretty sure that on my home linux machine, it hasn't been working properly. (There, the "keep pages loaded" pages don't reload.) I don't know what the difference is off-hand. I do have tab mix plus installed, but that's on both. In any case, looks like BarTab isn't at fault.... Thanks.
