I just installed the extension on FF 63 on my Android phone, where I have 150+ tabs open, all URL's collected over a longer period of time, which I need to process on my laptop.

The problem here is that FF is doing something with old tabs, so they are not really loaded pages. You see thumbnail and title of each tab, and the page reloads when clicking it.

When invoking the plugin, all these tabs are entered as about:blank in the list. Not with their true URL. I tried clicking / reloading the old tabs, because this causes them to be included in the list properly, but unfortunately for this many tabs FF cannot handle refreshing them all and crashes (sent crash report to Mozilla).

I don't know if there is a way for the extension to get to the real URL, when this 'caching' occurs, but it would be a real improvement if it did.

I can reproduce this behavior and would agree to see this as a bug. But with a quick look i don't know if it is possible to get the real URL from the Firefox API.
