Native tab groups "Save and close group" - group irretrievable

The new native tab group feature has an option to "Save and close group", implying that you can restore the group. But doing this, you will find that the group disappears.

Is this a known bug? Has anyone figured out how to restore a saved tab group?

Right. It's still work in progress. The group has been saved in Tab overview menu. But probably you won't be able to restore it in this version.

I'm on v. 137.0.1, and I realized after some time that the top left corner now has a functional "list all tabs" icon. It includes the stored tab groups. The icon gets highlighted when I close the tab group, but I initially failed to see that since I use the desktop magnifier. Nice feature FF!

I'm on v. 138.0.1. I realize this set of features isn't fully functional yet. So, just to report my experience: I create a tab group. It shows up under "Recent tab groups." But once I've closed those individual tabs, or if I navigate to a different Firefox window, that newly created tab group no longer shows up.

I'm really looking forward to using this feature when it's ready. '

Will there be a way to open, then collapse (and expand as needed) a complete set of tabs in a tab group? It would be great to have an easy way to access tabs I want for one project, then tabs I need for a different project. So far, I just have to use a different window.

Everything works very well without any issues on my side.
