Hello all, love the new app tabs. However I'm wondering if there are any configuration options for them?

I like during each firefox session the app tabs have the last page i visited always open its great i love it.

I'm wondering if there is anyway to have them reset each time I close firefox. As in, once I hit the [x] button and re-open a new FF browswer i want my app tabs to go to the orginal page i set them to not the last page i viewed on them.

for instance I have a forum set to a tab. when I read a thread, close firefox, re-0pen firefox the thread is still there. when i re-open firefox i want it to clear the thread and return to the forums homepage (the page i orginally set the tab for)

when i clear history, all my tabs reset. i just want them to reset upon exiting firefox.

I dunno much about programming... but i think this is because firefox saves the app tabs in the same history as everything else.

It'd be cool if the app tabs were just a special group of bookmarks that launched whenever the browser opened. (This would also allow you to delete your history without removing the app tabs) 

If firefox put this in an update, or if someone made an add-on to customize them into such a thing, that'd be pretty awesome.
