Epiphany isn't saved in the session

Bug Description

Not sure if this is Epiphany's fault, or the fault of GNOME session, but I' sure Epiphany was saved in the session when i was still using 5.10 (now I'm on the latest 6.06).

In System -> Preferences -> Sessions I enabled "Automatically save changes to session". then I open Nautilus, GNOME Terminal, and Epiphany with a few tabs open. Then I log out, and log in again. I noticed that Nautilus and GNOME Terminal are recovered when logging in again, but Epiphany is not.

It used to work fine in 5.10. Is gnome-session or epiphany broken?

I can confirm this behaviour using epiphany-browser 2.14.1-0ubuntu2. Epiphany seems to have lost the ability to keep data between sessions.
