Confirmed. I do it regularly and the browser regularly freaks out.
If you depend too much on the browser's information contents (open
tabs, what not), then some care is in order.

I try to not have critical stuff "in" the browser, so I enjoy the
fireworks (OMG! Something weird happened! We are so sorry!1!!).

Cheers
