Re: Firefox 24 doesn't restore session

Here is a wild theory:

Could it be that Firefox has some internal table of release dates
belonging to each release version. If the sessionstore.js is newer than
the date of the version it thinks it belongs to (as set in that version
number), then it assumes it is invalid and won't try to read it.

On top of that, some internal "own version number" should have been
updated when building Firefox, but it wasn't, so by default it comes to
the conclusion that normal sessionstore.js files are "too new".

I have no idea how to check this in some source code, though.
