User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6

when a reload is made in print preview mode, the current page is loaded into print preview without easy way to exit the mode.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Goto print preview.
2. Click on any of the controls in the print preview toolbar, EXCEPT the close button.
3. Hit F5.
4a. Current HTML page will load into print preview page.
4b. It is now unable to properly exit the print preview mode.
5. Hit Close button or press Esc.
6. The tab bar (if there is one) will now show up. However, the print preview toolbar is still open, replacing the File menus.
Actual Results:
The print preview toolbar will overlay the file menus, without easy way to gracefully exit the print preview mode.
Initally, the only way was to close the entire firefox browser, but certain extensions prevented firefox from closing.
The easier way was to change the page layout using the portrait/landscape mode, and then hit the close button. Now, print preview will exit gracefully.
Expected Results:
Either print preview is refreshed, or Firefox should ignore the reload command and do nothing. I.e. the current html page should not be loaded into the print preview page.
The workaround to properly exit the print preview mode is rather complex, which not a lot of people will be able to find. They will most likely end up closing firefox (BAD!!!).
