whuh? Never seen that on Windows or Linux -- can you describe what you
mean?

I actually like this -- if I was doing something important with several
different tabs, I can recover it, but if I killed Galeon on purpose and
just want Google now, I can easily get there.

My Galeon set up does this -- there's a couple of ways to skin the cat,
either a command line switch in the MUA or as a Galeon setting that
opens all new stuff in tabs instead of windows (that's a little annoying
with javascript popups of little pictures and forms, though).
