Firefox still forgets its brain sometimes.

I use an extension Tab Session Manager which seems to solve that
problem.  The issue with that problem being solved is I accumulate too
many tabs... 500-600 open on my main Linux box is not at all uncommon.
Tab Session Manager writes out a json file with the tabs periodically,
plus on events (like browser close), and I've found it very reliable.
