this has been implemented for years. it has a been a continual nuisance on 'kiosk' style machines that I use Firefox on -- even better : it used to be that a browser restore after machine reboot would restore the restart-nag page; even if it was no longer valid. it's end-of-the-world obnoxious for surveillance heads without human interface devices, and there isn't a lot of clean solutions to it other than schedule machine reboots with browser session wipes. Side note : the "Your Firefox Was Just Updated!" new-tab opening are similarly disastrous -- what would be a small notification or toast in any other program is a full-page third-party-hosted website with multimedia on it ; fantastic -- but those tabs can be optioned out in about:config, last I checked there is no escaping the 'firefox was updated, restart' nuissance, other than drastically killing the auto-update functionality.
