There has to be a "Paste All Tab Links" option to paste all tabs from a list, in order to complement the already existing "Copy All Tab Links"

Firefox has had a "Copy All Tab Links" right click menu (on a tab) option for a while now. It doesn't make sense that there is no "Paste All Tab Links" option to complement it.

You know, if you've copied all the tab links and saved it in notepad or maybe sent it to a friend, you later need to be able to open all those links efficiently without having to copy and paste each one individually. Doing that can be super tedious and it doesn't have to be like that.

Here is some pseudo-code that I wrote to show how the function should work. The "Paste All Tab Links" menu option would be grayed out unless the following conditions are met:

if clipboard.has_contents

if clipboard.contains.multiple_lines   (checking for both line end formats, CRLF and just LF)

if detect_URLs(clipboard.lines)

foreach str_url in clipboard.lines

     OpenTabFunction(str_url);

PS: I'm writing this all over again because the system doesn't save your post when you create a new account 😞
