I run lots of windows, each of which may contain lots of tabs.  I use WindowShade X to hide all but the drag bars of windows I'm not currently viewing.  Although this all works pretty well, I have a problem locating specific tabs, by content.

It strikes me that the "Window" menu item could have a two-level pulldown, with the second level listing any tabs that aren't currently selected.

What do you mean by "Window" menu item? I am not aware of that on Firefox.
On Mac OS X, Firefox has a "Window" pull-down in the application's menu bar.  It contains Minimize, Zoom, and a list of window titles.  It's this latter list that I'm suggesting extending with sub-menus.

In other news, the "Window" pull-down could also use a few more items.  See Leopard's Terminal.app for ideas...
i think that is part of the Mac OS. See the screenshots on http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Installing+Firefox+on+Mac for what I mean.
The menu items are presented by the OS, but they are specified by the app.  Could this bug be handled by someone who works on Mac-related UI issues?
