Good stuff so far. Just needs to automatically save the session upon closing the browser and automatically open the most recent session when opening the browser for 5 stars.

Edit: After using it for a little while now, I've run into a bug that I can reproduce easily. I use New Tab Tools. Open a new tab which goes to the New Tab Tools page, click on one of the pinned sites, click back to the tab next to it, go back to the new tab and it will randomly pick one of your saved tabs and reload it in this new one leaving you with two of the same tabs.

There's no reliable way to detect a proper Firefox shutdown, like the File->Exit being clicked. The only way is to monitor tab & window closing. A user can keep closing tabs until the last to shut down Firefox. In the first case, a save at shutdown would save just a blank session. Session Boss offers an alternative to serve the same purpose. It auto-saves a session whenever there's a change to a tab's URL (throttled with a 15 seconds delay), effectively handling the need of saving at shutdown. I've added some description in the "The current backup session" section in the extension info page.

For the bug, it looks like an interaction between two apps' behaviors. I'll take a look when I get a chance.
