Steps to reproduce:

  • Set Tab View Style to Sidebar.
  • Have some tabs open, then open Tab View and select Close All.
  • Note that the button changes to Undo (ref Close All Tabs Confirmation). Hit it.
  • The closed tabs come back, except they all now show the start page. this is clearly useless.

There is a second bug:

  • After hitting Undo, close and reopen the tab view
  • The Undo button has now become Close All again, despite the statement (by Vlad in the issue referenced above) that this button will remain an Undo button until the user creates another tab.

    I can reproduce this in a slightly different way:

    • Right-click on a top-level tab that has children and click Close Tree
    • Ctrl+Z

    Expected: restored tabs work as before.

    Effective: the tree will be reinstated correctly and all tab labels will match, but either some or all (it’s not consistent) of the restored tabs would be blank. The address bar would be empty and the tab would show the start page.

    There’s data loss potential: having lost tab URLs it may be tricky to locate what was open before (searching history by tab labels seems to be the only option left and it’s not very reliable).

      If anyone else is having the same issue, I found that this scary state:

      the tree will be reinstated correctly and all tab labels will match, but either some or all (it’s not consistent) of the restored tabs would be blank. The address bar would be empty and the tab would show the start page.

      may go away after browser restart. I accidentally clicked “Close other tabs” instead of “Close tree” once, and after a frantic Cmd+Shift+T brought them back (with the correct hierarchy) all 55 tabs seemingly “lost” their URLs. After restarting Orion I found them working, though.
