Yep. Tab history is important. How I got to some page is almost as important as the page itself.

I've been using large tab sessions ever since Opera 5 in the early 2000s. Back then I'd have 20-50 tabs or so. These days I have sessions of 500 active tabs and 500 suspended. It's great. I have full text tab search, and since my sessions last years, I know the general location of all important tabs. ALso, since I use a single process brower and NoScript, all those 500+ tabs take under <3 GB of ram.

It's matter of taste, but it's no new trend. Tabs, and tab users, have been around for 20 years now.
