I investigated this a bit while ago and I discovered that the toolbox closes because the docshell it has attached is destroyed.

Apparently some (all?) about:* pages are rendered in the parent process. When a web page is opened a new docshell is created in a child process. This takes over the tab and the original docshell in parent process is destroyed which causes the developer tools to close if they were attached to the original docshell.
