See also the Leave button in the Kickoff widget, specifically the Save
Session item which lets you save the current setup.

As the OP implied, some of us like to start a session with a set of
windows preloaded on specific desktops (and even in tabs in those
windows). Can the FN+FX technique deal with this?

For a while I've been using a script from 
https://github.com/zepalmer/script-vdr with my own adaptations. It does
require manually saving/restoring the browser setup, but mostly seemed
to work on F30. Unfortunately it's written in Python 2 and I haven't
got round to adapting it for Python 3 on F31.
