Filter/search within tabs view

[nccomput]

To the right of my address bar is an infinity symbol (this means I keep a lot of open tabs). This is compounded by the fact that there is no container support (to filter by or add to a tab container) and no quick search field to quickly limit how many tabs are in my list. I definitely have duplicate tabs open, but no ability to find my open tab so, BAM, I open another one.

This needs a simple but powerful overhaul.
