           Summary: Browser state retained on app launch
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh Intel
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.8
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: New Bugs

I frequently have both Safari and Webkit open at the same time. I find when I launch Webkit, it restores certain tabs - either the ones I currently have open in Safari, or the ones I had open during my previous session (I haven't done a thorough test to tell) - even though I have my preferences set so that it should not.

I know Safari and Webkit share some common resources and I wonder whether Webkit is using my current Safari session as a source for opening tabs when I launch Webkit. I'd rather it not do this - I like a "clean slate" when starting a browser. 

Is this a bug? If not is there a way to change the behavior?

Thanks
