It does seem Firefox is taking a strange direction, hopefully they
come back around.
It could be that they've decided the functionality is better handled as
an add-on, since one seems to exist. However, I just tried it and it
doesn't seem to work either. In the preferences I'd selected "at startup
'Show my windows and tabs from last time'" and "at shutdown 'backup the
current session'" but I just got the default start page when I restarted
Firefox.
I then tried the settings button | History | Restore Closed Windows and
noticed that it actually opened 3 new Firefox windows. One was a
duplicate single-tab startup session, another was an earlier session and
the third was the session I'd just closed. So I apparently just need to
close extra windows....
