Open more than 50 tabs in firefox. Try to bookmark open tabs by "Bookmark All Tabs". Then check the bookmarks which firefox created. Some open tabs are missing in bookmarked list. I've experienced this problem multiple times.

Firefox will only bookmark a specific URL once, so if you have open the same website in more than tab then Firefox will bookmark it only once, even if it has different content (e.g. in a frame).

bookmark a specific link. then open in in firefox with some other tabs. booksmark all open tabs by "Bookmark all tabs". check bookmarks. you will see that twice (and even more) bookmarking of same link is possible.
