I did switch to Chrome too...
Until Chrome also got all screwed up... :(
So now I use Firefox again because I can:
kill $(ps -ef|grep ' true tab$'|grep -v grep|awk '{print $2}')
and that kills all browser scripts and crashes all the browser tabs, but the
tabs survive and can be individually restored.
Can't do that with Chrome...
