I had a really nasty experience with falkon (from memory, falkon was 
something else before, and it got renamed to falkon - what it was 
before, I can't remember).

After a shutdown, or a crash of the application (it was the incarnation 
named falkon), when I next reloaded it, it reloaded the previous session 
of 23 windows, and kept reloading the session, opening hundreds of 
windows, so I had to use kill -9 to stop it, or, a power off of the 
computer.

I would never load it, or install it, intentionally, again, as I regard 
it as too dangerous.
