I have ~4-8 GB I/O because of ss on a 8h day. Please look at the bugs you have 
commented before.

Actually, FF forget really fast the closed/old tabs/windows ...
Plz look at the wiki for it.
But keeping a URL to going back don't coast much data (Bytes) ...
... but keeping the data to each page (e.g. form data) wast a lot of Bytes to 
each tab.
FF would be able to keep more pages to go back (back button to each tab), 
without needs more Bytes on the HD because I'm sure, it can be saved on any 
other place.

If somebody close a tab or window, then close manually the browser and reopen 
it again, with my solution he wouldn't be able to undo this tabs/windows 
anymore, but the URLs would still be in the browser history, so the user can 
reopen the pages from the history (last closed tabs/pages/windows).
