I'm personally a heavy tab user but have always wondered why there is almost no support for tab grouping or customization in the native tab bar in Firefox.

I think making it able to group like Google Chrome does for example or at least giving more access for extensions and add-ons would significantly improve the UI in that regard.

This thread is now gigantic, but here's to adding my redundant two cents:

  • It would be great if groups could be move; would be much easier than having to move many individual tabs around a group;
  • It would be great to have an option to bookmarks all tabs of a given group (for now you can bookmarks *all* tabs, you can "save and close" a group, but you can't simply bookmark the tabs of a group)

PS: just so that I am not only complaining: I really having groups, displaying them vertically, and being able to resize my tabs bar. Moving groups around would be good, but it's just a small improvement. Having the vertical tabs/groups work had been a dream for years and I am *so* happy that it finally works, I am really loving it!

I like how Chrome also lets you make the group colors different to solidify the differences. Probably my favorite overall tab feature.

Firefox team, you did a great job with the Vertical Tab feature in the latest release, please consider adding the tab grouping/tab folder feature as this is something a lot of people would be very grateful for!

Grouping tabs (available on Chrome) would be so helpful and amazing!!!!

This is quite literally the only feature preventing me from using Firefox at work. I have so many "background tabs" that I both need quick access to all the time but don't want getting in the way of my immediate work. Being able to group, color-code, rearrange en masse, and show or hide with a single click is a workflow I just cannot really live without. I used to think uBlock Origin was the one thing I couldn't live without, and that's true on my personal devices, but at work, my #1 need turns out to be tab organization!

Chrome just keeps getting worse, I would love to stop using it.
