A tab to see all projects you're member of currently #25

Hello - It would be great of you also have a tab that simply lists/hyperlinks all the projects you're a member or admin of. Will be easier to go and take voluntary updates on each project you're part of.

use case: When you're working on/or part of very many projects - some you're no longer actively tracking. but it would be useful to see a view of all projects and you could decide if you want to check any project. Maybe an icon showing all developments since you last saw that project could be useful but not necessary.

I took time to think about this, and I don't want to add a tab to list projects knowing that the UI in GitLab is good enough for this.

I'm thinking of adding quick links at the bottom of the popup redirecting to list of projects / teams / profile... What do you think?

Yes a button at the bottom of popup will be superb too.

It will basically reduce your need to go to gitlab window often to search for various projects/teams and then keeping that tab open - since you know you've the plugin popup, so u can close the gitlab window everytime you're done with it & focus on rest of the browser tabs - we anyways have loads of tabs these days.

Teams on the business side of product development - can use this as a way to peek into their team's gitlab projects/boards every once in a while and then go back to other work. @Mikescops this feature will be great - cant wait to use it! Could use it today if we had this! But the button - will it allow me to go project of my choice right from thr popup itself? Or first ging to Gitlab project UI & then selecting the project I want to peek in. I think if I could go to project/team etc. directly - gives me more peace of mind.
