Open Firefox iOS. Swipe to private browsing mode. Open any number of private tabs. Close Firefox (as in: fully close session by entering app switcher and swiping up so that the app is no longer running in the background). Reopen Firefox.
Expected behavior
All tabs in private browsing mode should stay as they were: keeping their respective histories, tab order, etc.
Actual behavior
All tabs in private browsing mode are completely and irretrievably gone.
