Open Link in New or Existing Tab Group

[Orudeon]

Sometimes I want to open e.g. an email link in a specific tab group rather than just at the top of the tabs list. I haven't found an addon that does this either.

Thanks for submitting an idea to the Mozilla Connect community! Your idea is now open to votes (aka kudos) and comments.

Right now, there are two potential workarounds that might work for you:
1. Right-click a tab that's already in the tab group, and click the New Tab Below option. That will open a new tab within the group, right below the tab you clicked. 
2. A more radical approach that might or might not work for you depending to your case: if you go to about:config and change browser.tabs.insertAfterCurrent to true, any new tab you open will open next to the current tab (regardless of whether you use Ctrl+T, "+" tab button). 
We're planning to make it easier to add a new tab within a group that doesn't involve these workarounds, but the horizon for this is about ~4-6 months.

Oh cool, I might have to try that and see how it feels.
