1525305 - "List All Tabs" UI should include a close tab button and/or allow middle-clicking for each tab listed.

The List All Tabs UI has very limited functionality, not being very helpful for users to organize their tabs.
Being able to close them at a glance in the vertical list would be very helpful, since the mouse cursor travel would be much reduced.

Mark, would you like to mentor this maybe? Should first confirm that UX is on board with this.

Amy, do you have a recommendation on how we can add a close tab option to the all tabs menu? It currently has a case where there is a sound icon that can be used to mute/unmute on the right as well.

I can mentor this, marking it as P5 since I think this would need to be a contributor patch for now.

Hi,

There's a bug that's currently being worked on to add more functionality to the overflow menu, including being able to close tabs from a context menu.

Sounds like this is a dupe of bug 356980 then.
