Hi.
Does the fix not consider pinned tabs? I use multiple windows with many
pinned tabs of websites I regularly use (mail, etc). Ctrl+Q only warns
before quitting if there are at least 2 *unpinned* open tabs. Should it
not consider pinned tabs in the count as well?
I'm using FF Developer edition 65.0b4 on Linux.
Thanks.

3) What is expected to happen in Firefox, with Edit -> Preferences -> Tabs ->
"Warn on closing with multiple tabs open" checkbox checked, is when one click
the X, File -> Quit, Ctrl+Q , or Alt+Space -> C, one get's the confirmation box:
Confirm close
You are about to close x tabs. Are you sure you want to continue?
4) What happens instead is one is not warned and the window closes.
PARTIAL WORKAROUND: about:config -> browser.tabs.maxOpenBeforeWarn ->
change from 15 to 2. This will pop up the confirmation box clicking
the X and Alt+Space -> C only.
WORKAROUND: Disable Ctrl+Q quiting the browser by installing keyconfig add-on:
http://mozilla.dorando.at/keyconfig.xpi
Then Tools -> Add-Ons -> Extensions -> keyconfig Preferences ->
highlight Quit -> Disable
Original Reporter Comments: I found a "workaround" that says to set
"open to a blank page" somewhere else, and I set this, but it still
doesn't warn me.
I work from home and frequently spend an hour or so putting in data,
all on one screen. If I accidentally hit the stupid little x (which is
now in the left hand corner just where you don't need it, it is too
easy to hit it by accident, but i can't change this, it comes with the
distro), i lose all that work.
Please tell me how to fix this terrible bug.
