Title:
When restoring a previous Firefox session, minimised windows appear
briefly
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
When restoring from many windows and tabs, windows flicker around for
a while. This includes windows that were minimised when Firefox was
closed. The window opens then minimises a moment later, unless it is
the original window which stays unminimised.
Tested on Natty.
Steps to reproduce:
* Start a guest session.
* Launch Firefox.
* Edit Preferences to 'Show my windows and tabs from last time'.
* Hold Ctrl-T for a second.
* Load a specific page to make a note of the original window. (Ex: ddg.gg)
* Press Ctrl-N.
* Hold Ctrl-T for a second.
* Repeat the previous 2 steps until there are 10 windows in total.
(See screenshot '10-windows.png')
* Press Super-D.
* Press Alt-Tab.
(See screenshot 'all-but-1-minimised.png')
Notice that only 1 window is unminimised and it isn't the original.
* Press Ctrl-Q.
* Launch Firefox.
(See screenshot 'bugs-on-restore.png')
Notice the flickering of windows appearing and minimising.
Notice that the original window is unminimised, so there are now 2
unminimised windows.
Minimised windows shouldn't even appear; they should /start/
minimised. The original window should also stay minimised.
Other bugs:
I expect you will also trigger this bug:

Notice also that in half of the windows, globalmenu-extension stops working.
