Details

steps: 1. setup a profile where you have nothing important 2. load https://projects.maemo.org/ 3. cancel the dialog 4. trigger a crash (crashme if necessary) 5. when asked if you want to restart, say yes 6. when you get the restore session tab, sit and wait for a while expected results: no dialogs actual results: a dialog asking you to log in - it's actually somewhat useful because it means i can log in once instead of dozens of times (once per tab), however it's also annoying. an alternative approach for this would be to queue a list of all auth requiring favicons and provide a list at the top (with some sort of button system). this would enable someone to log into all of their annoying services *before* they restore tabs, but only when they chose to, instead of while they're thinking. The same thing happens with Outlook Web Access
