Automatic grouping for same-site tabs

[riccardo]

• It could be useful to have the possibility of automatically grouping all of the instances of the same website in one single tab;
• Clicking on such a tab would open a dropdown menu in which entries are the individual instances of that website;
• The browser wouldn't group anything by default; user should toggle this behavior from one of the same-site tabs.

As for UX, two non-trivial cases come into my mind:

1. User leaves the website from a grouped tab;
2. User enters a website from outside an existing group.

The browser could move tabs into and outside the group each time the navigation bar loses user's focus (blur).

Not exactly what you ask for but ... maybe it helps a little.
