Would it be any good having a "trails" feature when browsing?

Yesterday I had an occation when my session browsing was interrupted when I was logged out for some reason. This meant I was not able to open / remember the pages I had just visited. Having a trails feature (browse session as "trails"/"tracks"), would in that case have been of use to me. Is anyone interested in this? Does this already exist?

as far as I can tell, no browser has implemented such a feature before...yes?no?

@Greg_401, are you aware of the Restore Previous Session command in the History menu? Whenever you quit Firefox (or are logged out of your operating system session, which also quits Firefox), you can reopen Firefox and use the Restore Previous Session command to restore the state of Firefox that existed before you quit. Then you can right-click or pull down on the back button in any tab to see that tab's browsing history. (Global history is also available in the history sidebar or history pane of the library window, if you have "Remember browsing and download history" enabled in Firefox settings.) This shows "the pages I had just visited" as you wanted. I use the Restore Previous Session command every morning to pick up where I left off when I shut down my computer the day before.
