 I tried starting firefox with "--save-mode": The effect, that the processes are still there after closing firefox was gone.
 After that I removed my "$HOME/.mozilla" folder, so firefox could start with a fresh environment. In this case there were no firefox processes after closing the application. 
 It seems that old user settings were the root cause of the problem.

 Therefore I prefer to close this PR.

 Sorry for the inconvenience.

 Regards,
 Hardy
