The whole point is to be able to get out of the quicksand without having to
kill the entire browser session (losing all your tabs).

If you kill the browser, yet you wanted the OTHER tabs (not the quicksand
tab), you can't ever start it again 'cuz you can only recover all the tabs
or none of the tabs.

So, this hosts edit and then doing a shift reload, allows you to blank out
the one quicksand tab and move on with your life.

Elegant, isn't it?
