Dear Mike,

with all due respect, but imagine, you suffer from such an issue for a
good part of this century, and now, you admit, fixing this issue was a
spare time dedication. Just to be clear, it doesn't lower your
achievement, but it sheds a really bad light on the *missing* Firefox
development control. This is accompanied with *degrading* this issue to
an **enhancement**, with what most of us comprehend as a **major bug**.

Sure, we all know, which OS gets the most attention. But be assured,
that for a couple of us Linux Hardcore users (in other words, those,
that suffer **most** from this bug since **ages**) such experiences
burrow into one's subconscious, and that harms the project as a whole.

Please understand, that those of us, that stick with Firefox still,
don't stick with it purely for technical reasons. A lot of us know about
the **political dimension** of the last free browser engine. My users
and me use Firefox, because we don't want to increase Google's influence
even further, *despite* bad performances like this. Again, no pun
intended to you personally. You're the **hero** for the moment in this
small corner of ontology. Some of us may have a picture of the bigger
side of it, some obviously don't! It's a pity, that those doesn't read
this.

I sincerely hope, that the fix will work for both situations, where it
failed before with different behavior: session restore from a restart of
Firefox and session restore from the window manager, and that it will
*keep* working.  Wayland is lurking around the corner already...

Hopefully, you don't feel offended. You shouldn't.

Unfortunately, I have to wait for the 75.0 release to test this
thoroughly on about 30 very different openSUSE systems. A backport
failed miserably.
