Pin tab to sidebar feature #11

Open orthoceros opened 9 years ago

orthoceros commented 9 years ago

I find this add-on very useful, especially when loading e.g. downloads (about:downloads) or the library (chrome://browser/content/places/places.xul) from a tab via "open tab in sidebar". This works very well. To make regular use of this feature, I would like to suggest a "pin tab in sidebar list" option, because otherwise the tab loaded in the sidebar is "forgotten", once e.g. the history sidebar has been opened again. (Right now, I only have "Bookmarks" and "History" in this list.) Or is there another way/GUI to define custom sidebar tabs/URLs and maybe even bring them into a custom sort order? Thanks.

Currently you can only use "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" checkbox in bookmark properties dialog (or click "More" for selected bookmark in Library). Will be not listed, but more easily accessible.

About custom sidebars. I'll think about this: this is useful, but I also want to keep extension simple and lightweight.
