When you open up the browser console in basilisk, and restart, and click in the console window, instead of focusing on the browser console, you get focused onto the main window.
This is somewhat confusing.
For what it's worth, I don't get the same behaviour in palemoon

Re: Strange problem in browser console
I think opening/restoring of windows on browser start up is asynchronous, so the order of windows is not guaranteed to be the same as when the browser was closed. The last I checked like a year ago, there were still long standing issues at Mozilla for this behaviour.
Start up sequence of Firefox is not really perfect and the same is inherited by Basilisk.

SessionStore has never been perfect and async didn't do it any favors. I am just thankful it works as well as it does. Basilisk is inherently much more aync than Pale Moon is so adesh is quite correct, good job.
Feel free to help improve SessionStore, OP!

Re: Strange problem in browser console
I'm not talking about the order of windows. I don't really mind which window comes out on top in this circumstance. It's just I don't expect a click in window A to bring window B into focus.

Re: Strange problem in browser console
The devtools use a whole bunch of hacks to hook themselves into the browser. that includes the browser console. you'll just have to live with the fact that window focus has a quirk because of that.
