Public bug reported:

I have two Firefox windows, each with a bunch of tabs, one on each of my
two displays. When I quit Firefox, these windows are obviously on
different displays. When I reboot and start Firefox, each of the windows
gets opened on the same display. I'd expect the windows to be restored
on the display they were originally on (if the external display is
plugged in and enabled, which it usually is).

I use KDE and Xinerama (partly because this is the only working
configuration I could find where I can use two displays and drag windows
between displays, with this particular hardware).
