By the way, yes, I shut down well by clicking on the system shutdown
function, I do not do this by a long press on the power button.

I did not get that behavior under Ubuntu, only since I migrated to
Debian 10 but I experience it on 2 computers under Debian 10.

Trye, "quitting Firefox properly" is not difficult but why should we make an 
exception for Firefox and bow to its need.
Firefox should know how to quit properly on its own when the operating system 
gives it the order because it has itself received the order to shut down.
All other applications and services can do this under Debian. Why not Firefox?

I am surprised at the lack of expectation and the acceptance of such a simple 
fault on the part of the community.
I always used Firefox, I always defended Firefox. I expect excellence from it. 
This defect is not serious indeed but it's not excellence.

Title:
  MASTER Firefox crashes on instant X server shutdown

Status in Mozilla Firefox:
  Confirmed
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in firefox-3.0 package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Firefox crashes when X server is forcefully torn down (e.g. by
  pressing ctrl-alt-backspace) and a crash report gets generated on next
  login.

  (Original Report:
  I've reproduced it once on my machine with the following steps. With, oh, 
about 5 tabs open, I just pressed ctrl-alt-backspace, logged back in when the X 
server restarted, and FF crashed with a bug report when Gnome tried to restore 
the session.

  It's not terribly important, I don't think anyone does this very often, but 
maybe it'll be helpful.
