feature request: a button to restart the browser while preserving the current tabs #613

There are still a few (I do admit rare) cases where Supermium requires me to restart it to get out of congested CPU or tabs no longer showing content.

As a workaround for such classes of issues it might be very helpful to have the ability to restart the browser by a simple click, making it reload all the current tabs again. This feature is already present in the source-code (regular Chrome shows that button whenever an auto-update completed!)

We would just need to introduce some flag to permanently show that button in the button-bar:

I have bookmark for about:restart for such cases on bookmarks panel. Its easiest way to do this.

Not as comfy as that button would be, but a great suggestion for interim workaround. I applied that. Many thanks.
