How can we reopen a sideview to standard tab #409

Sideview is a great idea, the "Ask for mobile website" is pretty good idea too. I have a problem with it though. It seems we can't either copy the url of the current sideview opened window, in the "recent" i can't CTRL+click the link to open in a new tab or copy the url.

In short: no way to send a sideview back to standard tab. Not very practical. Shouldn't it be easier like an on/off toggle for sideview ?

Thanks for the good feedback. Having a way to send the page back to the main window would be very useful.

The best IMO would be if the tab was still a tab, just moved into side view. And that it could be detached. I've been using Vivaldi a little bit and they have an amazing feature called tile tabs (other than that it's the buggiest browser i've used..). I was hoping side view was similar because it really is great.

I agree that would be the simpler and best way of doing it.
