Pinned variable viewer is put to the "background" when switching to other tabs #164

What versions and operating system are you using?

OS:WinXP
Firefox:3.6.13
Firebug:1.6.1
FirePHP Server Library:0.3.2
FirePHP Extension:0.5.0

What is the problem?
When the variable viewer is pinned and you switch tabs, it doesn't show up 
again when going back. It seems that it's put in the background if that's 
possible. You can see it's still open because it shows up briefly when opening 
an empty tab. As a result, clicking or hovering over firephp output in the 
console has no effect.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Pin down the variable viewer with a click
2.Switch to another tab
3.Switch to original tab, variable viewer is gone

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Meh... After switching back to the tab with firebug and firephp variable viewer 
open I should see the variable viewer open.
Instead the firephp VV is missing. Clicking on other firephp output has no 
effect so the VV window is still open but in the "background".

Please provide any additional information below.

To resume normal operation, I open an empty tab, open firebug, then open 
another empty tab and that seems to close the variable viewer.
