+Mardini +Pink I don't know what the expected behavior should be. The ability to open Recent Tabs from incognito is new -- previously, that option was removed from the tools menu. I think this is ok? If a tab is in Recent Tabs, then by definition it used to be a non-incognito tab, so it doesn't seem that bad to reconstitute it as a non-incognito tab. Changing this could also potentially lead to mild data loss -- 1) Close a tab. 2) Switch to incognito, go to recent tabs, re-open that tab (would open in incognito, if we change this behavior). 3) Close the tab again. Now it's an incognito tab, so it won't go to recent tabs.

crbug.com/826367 for context of why this is new. I also think this is OK since we're restoring a recently closed tab, and as Rohit mentions this used to be a non-incognito tab. Another option would be that on incognito we simply open the tab and don't restore it.

This is WAI. Please seen my comments number #7 and #13 https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=826367#c7

I see this comment on #13 (Which is what's happening here) "With recent tabs menu, it's a bit unclear whether they should open in the regular mode (i.e. restore them as they were), or open in Incognito (where the user is now; at a potential risk of linking regular and incognito identities)." But I don't see an "answer" for this particular issue on those comments. Should I still close this as WontFix?

Yes. I'll have the honour. |
