Hi,

Thanks for the nice extension.

Feature request: is it possible to add an option to also colorize the last tab visited?

Thanks

Do you mean the tab on the tab bar?

Firefox allows extensions to do some theming, but I don't think there is a way to color a specific tab other than the currently active tab. (https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/theme#colors)

If you are aware of any add-ons that can color a specific background tab, I can take a look at how they did it.

Hi. I mean to colorize the last active tab so you have a visual aid of the location of the previous tab you had active. Let's say you have initially 10 opened tabs all of them with the same background color. Your current tab is #4. Then switch to #6. Tab #4 will be colorized in red (for example). Switch to #9. Tab #4 will recover the original default color and #6 in red. And so on. It's a similar approach as your extension but with a visual aid.
