------------------------------+---------------------------
 When I click the TorButton in TBB-3.0a4 and select "New Identity", the
 complete torbrowser is restarted. This is a secure but not very user
 friendly behavior because all pages I am viewing at the moment are gone.
 My usual browser session consists of 20-30 open tabs that loose. Selecting
 a new identity is important from time to time if the current circuit hangs
 or i.e. google does block the current exit node.
