Currently to rearrange the browser tabs with a keyboard you have to focus the tab bar and use Ctrl+Left/Right (or Up/Down).  However focusing the tab bar with the keyboard is nontrivial.

I suggest making Ctrl+Shift+PgUp do what Ctrl+Left (or Ctrl+Up) currently does, but without the requirement to focus the tab first.  And likewise with Ctrl+Shift+PgDn.

This is consistent with other applications on my Linux desktop: GNOME Terminal switches between tabs with Ctrl+PgUp/PgDn and reorders tabs with Ctrl+Shift+PgUp/PgDn.
