When I X'd out of Firefox, I used to be asked if I wanted to save tabs before closing. That doesn't happen anymore. How can I get that feature back?

Before I upgraded Firefox, when I clicked out of it, I was asked if I wanted to "Save Tabs Before Closing". That doesn't happen anymore. Now it just tells me that I am about to close however many tabs I have open, and only gives me the option to close or cancel. Do you still have the option to Save Tabs so that I can go back to them when I re-open Firefox?

Firefox 4 and later versions save the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.
Use "File > Exit" or "Firefox > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox") if you want to restore multiple windows.
You can use "History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.
You may need to click the orange/gray Firefox button to see History.
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page.
