(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, enhancement)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050223 Firefox/1.0.1

This is a feature request.  Ever since I've used tabs to browse in Firefox, I've
been itching for a nice way to be able to arrange the pages I've opened in tabs
in some sort of order.  It might be nice to be able to drag tabs to the left or
right and change their order in the tab bar.  For example, if I'm designing a
feature on a web page and I do some searches in Google for a HOWTO, I might then
want to open my test page, but would like it to be in the tab list before the
Google search results.

This might be a good candidate for an extension rather than a part of the core
browser, but I thought it was worth suggesting, and the nice thing about not
having this be an extension is that it would enhance the browser's tab
functionality without adding any new controls or options, so it's sort of
bloat-free.

Reproducible: Always
