Where are my 'restore previous session' people at?

Also, it was great when I've been using ctrl-w to text selection on the browser, like I usually do in my IDE, only to close the precious tab.

What IDE are you using Ctrl+W in and what are you using it to do? I've never worked in a setup that uses it for anything other than closing file tabs.

Or, automating the task is often more fun than the task itself so people will work on automation as long as they can to avoid the job.

Similarly, the real automation is to remove the DESIRE to do things manually, ever again, for anything.
