In case you're mad at yourself for closing your precious window with all the right tabs opened, note that Firefox allows to reopen recently closed windows (jlai.lu)

I generally have a "home" Firefox window with my most used tabs pinned. Sometimes I close it before another window, so I was frustrated to "lose" it and having to redo my pins. But recently I discovered this feature. Joy!

Are you talking about completely wiping the session?

For example, you open a private window (say, session 1) and bookmark sites while in session 1 to refer to later in the same session. Upon closing session 1 the behaviour you expect is for those bookmarks to be deleted. However in session 2, the bookmarks you created in session 1 are persistent?

Yes, session 2 keeps all of the bookmarks in the history in the order I saved them even though I'm in private mode and I have it so it's supposed to delete all history when I close the window. Not tabs, but the entire browser is shut down.
