Open specific pages Including where you left off

Reported by babakre...@gmail.com, May 19 2018

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/66.0.3359.181 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open Browser Settings 
2. Locate "On Startup Settings" Box
3. Select "Open a specific page or set of pages"

What is the expected behavior?
Panel resizes to show/add to  list of new pages.

What went wrong?
When setting specific pages, the tabs that open on the next launch are not inclusive of where you left off (In other words only the specific pages entered will open when browser is relaunched)

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 66.0.3359.181  Channel: stable
OS Version: 
Flash Version: 

It should be relatively easy to add this feature by either adding inserting the "specific pages" into std::vector<GURL> urls and trigger it with a checkbox?

Thanks for filing the issue!

As per comment#0 it is understood that the above issue seems to be a feature request rather than a bug, hence marking it as Untriaged. Requesting some one from "UI>Settings" team to have a look into this.

"Open set of specific pages" and "Continue where you left off" are mutually exclusive. If the former is selected, only those pages will be opened. If the latter is selected, only previously open pages will be open.

Having said that, the feature being requested here can already be achieved using pinned tabs. Steps:

1) Create a tab for each page you want to always open on startup.
2) Right click on the tab and select "Pin tab"
3) In chrome://settings select "Continue where you left off"

Next time you restart, all pinned tabs will be open, as well as the previously open (non-pinned) pages.
