A Jetpack: Firefox 'Restart' Menu Item

I wrote this Jetpack as another entry for the Jetpack 50-line Code Challenge, it is simply a 'Restart' menu item for Firefox's 'File' menu.

When I was trying to come up with ideas I starting thinking about replacing a number of Firefox extensions I currently use with a lightweight Jetpack. So I instantly thought about Quick Restart, by Juan Carlos Avila B, which I have used a lot in the past, but it had a bunch of extra data packaged with it that I didn't want such as localization (albeit I'm sure this is something others want), xul, css, and images files.

I've used Quick Restart for some time now, and still think it is a great addon, but I'm pleased to say that there is a Jetpack option available now.
