Add Preview Page feature in Firefox for Android to quickly view a link in a temporary tab that overlays the Firefox window. Pressing close button on this overlayed tab closes it or swiping the header of preview tab down closes it. There can be an option to turn it into a normal tab. This will simply opening a link for quick glance without actually leaving the tab of main focus and quickly returning back to it.
Following screenshots shows this implementation in Brave Browser.
