Registered session is overriding commandline URL
Short description
When a tab session is marked Startup using the "Register for Startup"context menu option then the command line URL is opened but then overridden by the registered session.
Steps to reproduce
- Start browser with clean profile
- Install Tab Session Manager
- Open a number of web sites in different tabs
- Save the session
- Register it for Startup
- Close browser
- Open a console window
- Start browser from command line with a URL that is different from the ones that were saved in the previous session
Expected result
- The Registered session with its tabs and windows to reopen
- The URL from the command line to open in another tab.
Actual result
- The URL from the command line is opened in a tab transiently.
- The Registered session is opened and the tab from 1. is overridden (closed) in the process.
Platform information
- Platform (OS): Debian 12 / KDE Plasma
- Version of browser: Firefox 114.0
- Version of Tab Session Manager: 114.0
Additional context
May be developers consider this "by design" or a feature. I consider this a bug because basically it cripples a major browser feature that is equally "by design" and that without warning user. When browser is closed and a web link is clicked in another application, then only the registered session is shown, not the requested site. This is unexpected behavior. that needs at least a warning.
