Can Firefox be set to display the new tab page when starting the browser? In Options > General, the only choices under "When Firefox starts" is show the home page, a blank tab, or restore previous session.

Alternately, can the new tab page be set as the home page?

You can add "about:newtab" to the Firefox shortcut on the desktop.
