Firefox Addon: Set Aside Tabs

What is this:

A copy of Edge feature: set aside tabs. This is a very useful feature to organize tabs and work spaces. Introducing it as an addon before firefox implement it officially.

Differences from Edge version

  • Because the firefox sidebar is too narrow for the feature, I put the set aside tabs in a separate tab.

  • It only set aside normal tabs that is not pinned, so if the firefox preferrence page is open, it is not set aside.

  • Bookmark function is not included. I don't think it is very useful. If you think so, let me know.
