Chrome web browser should have option to reopen the same tabs when restarting

Reported by msmig...@gmail.com, Aug 5 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS armv7l 8350.68.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/52.0.2743.116 Safari/537.36
Platform: 8350.68.0 (Official Build) stable-channel veyron_minnie

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Launch the Chrome web browser and open some tabs.
2. Close the browser.
3. Reopen it - only one tab with your home page is loaded.

What is the expected behavior?
I would expect there to be an option to reopen the same tabs that were open when the browser was closed. Even though I have the option On Startup -> Continue where you left off enabled, I learned that this only applies when the Chromebook itself restarts, not the browser. This is a little confusing. Maybe there should be another option here to reopen the tabs upon close of the web browser instead of the full OS?

What went wrong?
Only the home page tab opens upon restart no matter what.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 52.0.2743.116  Channel: stable
OS Version: 8350.68.0
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 22.0 r0

Most other browsers have this option (even the stand alone Chrome browser on other OSes like Windows). Personally I often close the browser to save memory but I like to leave a list of tabs open. Right now I cannot easily begin where I left off when the browser restarts.
