loosing a tab when I click the home page
Can someone tell me why it is if I'm on a tab and either accidentally or on purpose click the home icon the tab will shut down, and be replaced by the home page? What type of backwards reasoning went into that feature? I've had this happen numerous times without intent, and sometimes with the intent to hit the home button and either way the same thing happens. If it weren't for the browser keeping a history, there are times I would be just out of luck, and have to suck it up. This is not a feature I want in a browser. Instead hitting the home button should forward the tab I'm on to the home page with the ability to back click to the tab I was on. Someone needs to re-think this feature. I would really like to have someone on the development team address this issue.

Hello,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. However, it's not the right place for it. We'd appreciate submitting your idea on Mozilla Connect.
Also, as a temporary workaround, you may want to remove the Home button (and open new tabs instead). For how to do this, please see Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars.
