If you accidentally unchecked "Warn if closing multiple tabs in browser" there
is no where to turn it back on. At the very least it should fall under the
"Tabbed Browsing" portion of Edit -> Preferences

Unless I'm completely blind I've found no way to turn this feature back on. One
might assume that it would be under Edit -> Preferences -> Navigator -> Tabbed
Browsing... I couldn't find it anywhere and it's truly an important feature.

type in adressbar:
about:config
search for:
browser.tabs.warnonclose and set it to true
There is no GUI for this.

Will there be a GUI or will it remain this way? I think for the general public
using this browser setting a variable to true by searching through what appears
as more of a backdoor is too difficult. For someone like me (and it works as
I've turned it back on) it's not hard but I did spend a LOT of time searching
for a way to turn it back on including Google.
I would say if you are not going to put any GUI in for this, please add it to
HELP in tabbed browsing.
