I would like to request a new feature for Thunderbird which has been already implemented in the latest version of Firefox.
When opening an e-mail where that particular e-mail is already open somewhere in a tab, Thunderbird should not create a new tab, but switch to the existing tab.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open e-mail
2. Open same e-mail

Actual Results:  
You will have two tabs with the same e-mail

Expected Results:  
Switch to existing tab.
