I'm not sure if regular old me is allowed to edit the main page even for this, so I'm just going to mention it here. AFAIK, it's [http://tmp.garyr.com/ Tab Mix Plus] that does session saving and whatnot, not regular Tab Mix. -- [[User:Peng|Matt Nordhoff]] [[User talk:Peng|(talk)]] 00:34, 9 Feb 2006 (PST) | I'm not sure if regular old me is allowed to edit the main page even for this, so I'm just going to mention it here.

== Use-cases for Session Restoration == | |||
* Corporate environments: "Most have a policy which states that you have to turn off your computer when you leave for the night. Now assuming that not every employee stays at work in the evening until all work is done, I consider it reasonable for the user to expect to be able to start in the morning right where he has left in the evening, although the machine was switched off over the night." | |||
* "A second scenario is, that, unfortunately, since even FF is not bug free, one has to restart it occasionally when it starts to behave oddly. This is not a crash, it's a user requested quit, but I expect to start work again at exactly the point where I have left." | |||
* consultants/travelers: people who involuntarily shut down the browser many times each day | |||
* admins: people who log onto their user account at many other people's boxes, many times during the day, such as IT/helpdesk workers at large organizations | |||
* mobile: people who load FF, or their profile, off of a usb key. | |||
