Normal web browsing experiences looks like this.
Open first site -> Open many pages on it in new tabs
Open second site -> ...
open Third site ...
return to first site -> may by open new pages ..
..
After it you see tabs panel with mixed many tabs from ~4-8 sites. When one of this sites no more needed you want to close all tabs from it. I want to do it at one click. But now i must search all tabs from this site through all tabs panel and close each.

I thing good feature and advantage over other browsers will be feature "grouping tabs by site". When tabs will collapse in one grouped tab like in Windows task bars collapse windows from one applicaton. When you click left button on grouped tab - last opened pages from this group will opened in your browser. when You click right button - you will see dropdown menu with all opened tabs and grouped tab menu at bottom (close group, expand group,...) . Feature must be optional and must work only when count of tabs from one site > 3 and tabs panel already contain many opened tabs.

Hmm, not sure about grouping all tabs permanently but you could add 'Close all tabs of this site' to the context menu when you right click on a tab of the site you wanted to get rid of
