1279636 - Tab summary menu closes everytime a single tab is deleted from the list

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox :: Menus, defect)

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; Win64; x64; rv:40.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/40.1.0 Waterfox/40.1.0
Build ID: 20151110201532

Steps to reproduce:

I am a heavy user, with often up to 150 tabs opened at a time.
At some point I save with SHIFT + CTRL + D the entire session, so I can start anew without losing everything.
 As an alternative, one can just open the list of tabs by clicking on the far right of the screen, where a tab menu opens and rightclick and delete redundant tabs.
The great thing is, one has a lot of lenghty information about the tabs.



Actual results:

Unfortunately, everytime you clickdelete one of the tabs, this list closes again. You have to then reopen it and start new. This inefficient. 



Expected results:

If there were a way to leave the list open, or even to mark the redundant ones for deletion, perhaps also allow the tabs to be sorted by
name or time or size of cache they use up, that could be a great way to quickly shrink the session to a healthy size.

As far as I can see we don't even support closing tabs from that menu. Do you have an add-on installed doing that?
