I don't turning off automatic session is accidentally or to make it
work like window. It is turn off because Firefox is just *NOT* session
capable. This is a RFE which has been around and debated for a long
long time. The reason for it not being implemented is because Windows
does not have this capability and therefore it is hard to maintain a
cross platform product in this manner. Of course, the XSMP is not
exactly simpler for applications to use either from non-GNOME
developers.
