A Classic Extension Reborn: Tree Style Tab
As much as browser tabs are a broken band-aid,[1] TST is a vital and tremendous improvement over flat horizontal tabs, and absolute clobbers Chrome for productivity.  With the performance improvements of Firefox 57, there&#x27;s absolutely no question which browser is superior.<p>The wonderful thing about TST is that they create an inherent structure to ones tabs:  those opened from the same root create a subtree, can be expanded or collapsed collectively, or moved, or deleted, as a group.<p>The power and flexibility this gives over Chrome&#x27;s abysmal tab management is simply staggering.  For whatever the reasons, Google has been pursuing the minimum viable user,[2] with highly predictable results:  advanced users are crippled through a brutally insufficient interface.  My experience on numerous bugs and issues filed against Chrome confirms that Google have no interest in addressing this.[3]<p>That said:  I&#x27;d really like to see a description of the &quot;Container Tab&quot; concept, as I can&#x27;t make heads or tails of what this is supposed to be, do, or be used for.<p>Otherwise, congrats to the Firefox team.  I&#x27;m enjoying the new features and capabilities, and the mainstreaming of TST.<p>________________________________<p>Notes:<p>1.

I&#x27;ve launched a Denial of Feedback attack on Google for its various products.  I no longer file bugs or report issues.  I encourage others to join in this attack.
