Opening with the last state is fine, although it should be optional.
However, it should definitely not do that when you pass an URL to it on
start.
I don't quite agree. It should open with the last session underneath the
URL that you wanted, i.e. with the requested URL in a new automatically
active tab.
I misunderstood Pete that Web+ would open two windows, but other than
that, I agree with you how it should be done -- it should not be easy to
accidentally lose your session.
No, I don't think you misunderstood me (:-)) For instance, I have a
"Wikipedia" bookmark
on my Desktop [well, had... it's now a script]. If I click on that, W+ opens
Wikipedia,
but then opens the last session directly *on top*!
There wouldn't be much problem if it opened underneath, though I differ in
*not* usually
wanting my previous session automatically. (Surely it's in the history anyway?)
In fact it was a bit of a nuisance the other day. I was checking the download
of an hpkg
from my website, and W+ insisted on treating it as text! A very big (and slow)
screenful.
Each time I'd try a fix, I'd get that confusing screen on top again. (FTR, the
correct fix was
to add "AddType application/x-vnd.haiku-package .hpkg" to .htaccess.)
