I use one FF window for social media, another FF window for ebay/amazon/retailers, another window for news, another for weather/sea-state forecasts, another FF window for webmail clients, etc. It would be *really* useful if the pop-up in my menu bar (when I hover over a window icon) could have a user-editable name for the window. "Social", "Shopping", "eMail", etc.

I.e.: could we manually enter the window-name in the title-bar for each FF window?

OS: Kunbuntu 22.04, pretty much bog-standard using the default task manager.

Yes please! That add-on looks good and I'm definitely going to give it a shot, but it would be even better to have this as a built-in feature!

It is recommended to add the function of naming windows like the Google Browser.

In addition to being able to name windows, I would love to be able to color code them using the new, snazzy palettes that have been introduced. I really try to keep my multiple on-going projects in their own window so the size of the tabs does not shrink to the point I cannot read them.

Please add this. Chrome and Edge have "Name Window..." option in this context menu (see pic). Firefox should as well. There is "title renamer" addon but it is too complex solution and should really be integrated feature of the product.

Name windows and send tabs between them

This is one is for productivity and managing work in Firefox. I think there was a discussion about getting work done in Firefox, but I can't seem to find it.

When Firefox has more than one window open, it would be useful to be able to name them and then be able to send tabs between the named windows. I know there is an add-on for naming windows, but this would be a contextual option when right-clicking a tab.

I have to use Chrome for work and I have two displays, one I use for communication and research, the other for the work I am doing. Quite often I move tabs between windows to organise data on my screen. In Firefox, this is difficult has the options are limited to Move to the endMove to start or Move to new window. With Chrome, you are able to move to named windows, see attached screenshot.

So the ask is

1. Add the ability to name a window by right-clicking the top of the window and adding a name.
2. Add an option when right-clicking a tab to send it to a named window.
