I realize it's still annoying but you can Ctrl-Shift-T to get a tab back, usually with the partially-filled form intact.


I've used Lazarus (for Firefox) to good effect for recovering lost forms: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/lazarus-form-...


Or use vimperator (or its replacement whose name escapes me). 'd' deletes a tab (as will C-w), 'u' "undeletes" it.

History made marvelously easy. This alone sold me on the extension.


Are you perhaps referring to Pentadactyl[1]? I'm a huge fan of it.

Thanks, yes. I'd seen it referenced here, haven't used it.

Vimperator still works on my somewhat age'd 14.0 FF.
