A wild guess is that the browser is trying to save the current session
while the app gets suspended, resulting in a corrupt session file. When
the app is launched again, it tries to read the corrupt file, and falls
back to not restoring anything.

I’ll see if I can add a mechanism to ensure that the session state is
written to a temporary file first, and if that succeed, move that file
to the browser’s data directory. This will hopefully make it more
robust.

Title:
  Webbrowser-app losing saved state upon restart

Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I've noticed that lately on my rc-proposed dogfood mako that sometimes
  webbrowser-app will be OOM (or crash?) and restarted but lose all its
  previous tabs.  Which is super annoying.

  I told myself I'd leave it alone next time it happened and grab the
  logs.  Here they are.  Nothing super jumped out at me.
