 I was browsing with several tabs open when I thought I'd use the new
 identity feature of Torbutton. I clicked on green onion symbole in Aurora
 and then on "New Identity". To my horror all tabs and browser windows
 vanished and I was presented with a empty browser window.

 This was unexpected and very unpleasant. I used the "Use a new identity"
 button in Vidalia previously and nothing like that ever happened. I
 expected all NEW connections to be different but no action happening to my
 current browsing.

 Please add a prompt (like "All tabs will be closed") to that feature to
 save people's browsing.
