Bring back Reopen Closed Tab hotkey

Right now there is an annoying hybrid Reopen Closed Window or Tab feature on the Ctrl+Shift+T hotkey. But Reopen Closed Window already had the Ctrl+Shift+N hotkey, even prior to this change. I can't find anywhere to change this behavior.

There are these two prefs in about:config that control this behavior.

  • browser.sessionstore.closedTabsFromAllWindows => false
  • browser.sessionstore.closedTabsFromClosedWindows => false

You can open about:config via the location/address bar. Read the warning and click "Accept the Risk and Continue".

This only affects what is shown in the history menu. The hotkey can still reopen windows instead of tabs.
