Option to lock one side of Split View as a "Main Window" and cycle other tabs on the remaining side

[teimo94]

Hi everyone,

I love the Split View feature, but I would like to suggest an improvement to make it much more flexible for multitasking.

Currently, when using Split View (e.g., YouTube on the left, and a work tab on the right), clicking on any other open tab completely breaks the split layout and goes back to the full-screen view.

It would be amazing to have an option to "Lock" one side as a Main Window (or Pin it), while keeping the other side dynamic. For the dynamic side, we could have a small dropdown menu or scroll buttons next to the split divider to easily cycle through our other open tabs without leaving the split screen layout.

This would allow users to keep their main reference/entertainment tab open on one side while quickly switching between different work tabs on the other side.

Thank you for considering this!
