Firefox 2 feature: Recently Closed Tabs

It would be nice if they'd do the same thing for recently closed windows as well.

I wish they'd steal the fact that Opera (who had tabs before Firefox or Safari) just always saves all the tabs. So you quit the app, and next time you start it, your tabs are back the way they were. That's how it should be!

Firefox does this if it quit unexpectedly, so why it doesn't always do this is beyond me.

Seeing as David Hyatt works on Safari/WebKit, I think the "stealing" is probably ok.

Check out Saft if you want this functionality in Safari.

It has been available as an extension for Firefox for some time now. It's good to see it integrated by default.

It would be better if the original extension authour could be credited however.

Some companies, like MS, won't admit to "borrowing" features. It frustrates some users, but I say whatever is good and is implemented in similar software is only better for the end user, so why complain? It's not stealing unless they say they invented it IMO.

I like that the Firefox team has thought to include things like this (even if it was done in Opera first)

If you accidentally closed a tab you can Undo it. COMMAND, Z. It works like a charm, but that feature might be nice also.

south, dude, you gotta use the "porn mode" if you're gonna be looking at porn ;)

great... yet one more way for my wife to find all the porn i've been looking at.

"the stealing shouldn't stop there (or is it borrowing when Apple does it?). "

So just because one developer does something good does that mean that when another developer does something similar it becomes stealing or borrowing? And how can that be a negative thing?
