Comment (by mcs):

 We need to do a little but more research, but it seems that if we use
 Mozilla's existing mechanism to open release notes in a new tab after an
 update, as a "side effect" the browser will restore the session (including
 any open tabs) when it restarts after applying an update.  We probably
 want to disable this "one time session restore" behavior so as to not
 alarm or confuse people.
