Need a "View => Tab thumbnails" (or something) menu equivalent to Ctrl+Tab This would be useful on any platform, but it is essential when using the KDE window manager on Linux, because in that case the Ctrl+Tab keychord is intercepted by the window manager to switch virtual desktops (by menu, go to next or previous virtual desktop every time Tab or Shift+Tab are hit while holding Ctrl), so no program getting its keys through X can ever see a Ctrl+Tab in that environment.

Are you talking about a separate menu from the List All Tabs button on the right side of the tabstrip?

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1b2pre) Gecko/20081105 Minefield/3.1b2pre - Build ID: 20081105020548 When I click that button, nothing happens, except that it becomes dark grey on a first click, then white again if I click again. What I'm advocating is an additional menuitem in the View menu, on the menu bar.

P.S. It does work in a clean profile, but IMHO a menuitem on the menubar would still not be too much.

Agreed on the need of a menu item. As I recall, Dão's extension had some shortcut like Ctrl-Shift-A, but that's not working here. If there's another shortcut, it doesn't seem discoverable at all. So, as far as I can tell, the tab search feature is currently completely inaccessible if you don't use the mouse.

This feature was removed from 3.1, so not blocking.
