I have a firefox extension that lets me restart firefox from the menu. I
have a firefox extension that restores all my tabs when firefox starts
back up. If I had the time and knowledge I'd write an extension that
would activate the former either once a day or when my system was
idle (detect screensaver or monitor sleep? I dunno)
Yes, this is a half-assed solution to fix a problem that should have been fixed
by now. *grumble*
