Comment(by mikeperry):

 cypherpunks: Pretty sure the nsSessionStore.js file has all the observers
 that cause it to write stuff at various browser events (such as final-ui-
 shutdown, etc). Though, what might be happening is that something else is
 *also* listening on those observers and calling in to the
 nsSesionStore.js? But either way, breakpoints will help get to the bottom
 of that.

 In the source tree, the path to it is
 ./browser/components/sessionstore/src/nsSessionStore.js.

 I will be working on #5715 right now, so anything you discover will be
 helpful.

 Shondoit: Hrmm.. I still can't reliably reproduce it. Note TBB also sets
 browser.sessionstore.resume_on_crash to false. Though the private browsing
 mode info is a useful datapoint to check the source for. Perhaps the
 source file does something special if PMB is enabled that it doesn't do
 for resume_on_crash=false.
