Use browser theme or option to select theme

[sarcastro]

It might be helpful to be able to select multiple tabs to allow performing rightclick
actions in bulk and reordering/moving more than one at a time (both of which you
can do using the regular tabs at the top.)

- Select/deselect tab range by holding Shift
- Select/deselect individual tabs by holding Ctrl

This would allow performing all of the right-click actions in bulk, especially useful
once it can't be done with the regular tabs any more due to having too many open
to fit horizontally. Also quicker for reordering/shuffling them around.

I should've re-checked before hitting submit as StickNik posted about multi-tabs (#26) in the meantime. I'm putting a different suggestion in this space, hopefully you can change the title to:

Align with browser theme rather than device/system theme

Dark Mode intelligently aligns with your system theme, ensuring a comfortable browsing experience without any manual adjustments.

I understand the the logic behind aligning with the system theme, it's probably accurate for most people most of the time. However, because it's possible to set Chrome's theme independently of the system theme, it won't match for all people all of the time. e.g.

Light theme:

Changing Chrome's theme (Settings > Appearance)

Dark theme:

(As a side note, I would increase the grouped tab indentation as well to help with accessibility.)

There's also some similar but opposite issues with fonts, where Vertical Tabs adopts font sizes set in Appearances which are intended for pages only. Cheers Sami, sorry again for botching the post :P

Cheers Sami, hope 2024 treats ya well!

Hey @sarcastro, thank you for the detailed post! I'll need to double check if the Chrome theme can be used inside an extension, but another option I see is having an option to change between dark/light from the extension directly.

Indentation issue is already open here #12. And created an issue for the font sizes #36.
