This is undesirable. It should not adjust windows that are already open in any way. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open any number of firefox windows (set to whatever webpages you desire). 2. Minimize a window in such a way as to make sure no other firefox window activates. The easiest way to do this is to minimize all firefox windows - then the last one minimized was the most recently active window. However, it still will restore a minimized window if other windows are open as long as the minimized window was the most recently active one. 3. Then click on a link in some other program (e.g. gaim). Actual Results: The most recently active (minimized) window will restore before the new window is opened. Expected Results: A new window should have opened. No other window should have been restored from a minimized state.

Works for me, just opened a url from a window in the IRC client mIRC, and it opened in a new window when the option the reporter mentions is set.
