Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: Tabbed Browser, enhancement)

It would help to be able to use the Tab Bar just ask a Winnt 5.1 Tab Bar,
allowing to group certain tabs, move them between groups (possibly consisting of
only one tab), and, most important, to be able to resize it: Browsing for ebay
offers/google results may create a full Tab Bar with entries for one and the
same context, where only the standardicon would be displayed. Resizing would
allow the  user to read the first few words (maybe enhanced by a somewhat
smaller/slimmer font.).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.http://search.ebay.de/search/search.dll?MfcISAPICommand=GetResult&ht=1&maxRecordsPerPage=50&ebaytag1code=77&query=WLAN+DSL&category0=&minPrice=&maxPrice=&st=&region=0&SortProperty=MetaEndSort&js=0
2.Open a Tab  for any suitable WLAN DSL Router.
3.->Tab Bar junk.

Actual Results:  
Tab Bar junk.

Expected Results:  
Allow me to shift a Tab (for example an early search Tab at the beginning of the
Tab Bar.).
