Description

If loading a pinned tab errors, the error is not shown in the pinned tab, but is shown in a new tab which does not show the url which errors. The pinned tab then shows a non-branded error page. This can be a confusing UX as we've seen here, as it's not clear where the error tab has come from.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Use borked profile from bad session state can result in permanently borked profile #13261 in which www.ebay.com cannot be loaded due to infinite redirects due to bad cookies
  2. Pin www.ebay.com
  3. Restart browser

Actual result:
2 additional tabs are created with errors that do not specify which url or tab caused those errors.
Pinned ebay.com tab shows unbranded error.

Expected result:
Error is shown in pinned ebay tab, and upon resolving of the error (clearing cookies), and restarting, ebay continues to load in a pinned tab.

Reproduces how often:
100%

Brave Version

Reproducible on current live release:
