Adding dataloss keyword (if there is unsaved form data in one of the other tabs).

I think this is the same bug, Seamonkey using 20050801 build I have it open in
new window. If a URL on a web-page takes you to a new window and when your done
and close that window out and go back to the original window I am get a crash
when I try to go either foward or back on the original main window. I switched
browsers so Firefox opened in new window and Seamonkey opened up a new tap. both
do the same things. Neither do this prior to the splitwindow patch.

William, is there a reason you removed the dependency?

> William, is there a reason you removed the dependency?
I did not remove it. The only thing I can think of is when I went to hit commit
I got a error message saying someone else was at the same time trying to make
changes at the sametime. That I could delete what I just wrote and go back to
302902 bug or try sending again. I hit send again. Maybe that caused the
dependency to be deleted or not get posted? Also maybe this helps but I tried on
my Apple with OSX 10.4 and with build 20050801 and it works great. It does not
crash either way as mentioned above on my Linux computer.

I have been trying both Firefox and Seamonkey builds 20050802 with the changes
done to the split windows patch. Both are been very stable.
