Comment (by joebt):

 Not sure what you mean by "restarted," but in 3.0a4 on Vista x64, clicking
 New Identity closes open tabs & leaves the "about Tor" tab /page open.
 But the browser doesn't close, then restart.

 I agree - an irritating "bug."  If this is by design, have to figure a way
 to save open tabs, if ever want to use New Identity.
