User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050424 Camino/0.8+ Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050424 Camino/0.8+ I wanted to suggest a new feature: By double clicking on the unused area of a shown tab bar a new empty tab is created. FireFox has a separate button for that, Camino has a toolbar icon for it but I think my recommendation is also a good idea. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Doubleclick on unused area of tab bar Actual Results: nothin' Expected Results: new tab is added to already existing tabs
We already have enough options for users to open new tabs, and this one is the most iillogical if you asked me. - toolbar item - shortcut - tab bar contextmenu - command click bookmarks or links
(In reply to comment #1) > - tab bar contextmenu There's no Contextual Menu for the blank part of the tab bar, though; you can only get a new tab by clicking on an existing tab, which is not exactly the same context :-) If it's not hard to implement, double-click might be a nifty feature. Otherwise, I tend to lean toward Jasper's stance.

Aye. I think we should have a context menu for the blank area of the tab bar, though, even if all it has in it is "New Tab"...

Additional interesting items:
- close all tabs
- reload all tabs
- show bookmarks (in new tab)

i could almost see this as a semi-reasonable shortcut. double-click does mean "open" and what else are we going to do with that space? i agree it's not discoverable though. i can go either way.

Well let's confirm this them. I think doing a context menu for the empty tab section is a good idea, and mike argument that double click means open seems reasonable to me aswell.

I think this bug is fixed, I can double-click on the bar and it opens a new tab
