Per-tab proxy mode #181

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Provide a per-tab proxy mode (similar to "Auto switch mode") which, when 
enabled, applies the proxy selection to each tab individually. When enabled, 
each new tab could adopt the currently selected proxy without affecting the 
proxy use of previous tabs with a different setting.

To auto-switch using URL patterns for a specific website seems easy when a 
single pattern can match all resources associated with that site (images, 
scripts, etc), but when these resources are loaded from diverse URLs, and I 
want to load those using the same proxy, I think it could be simpler to use a 
tab-specific proxy.

Typical use case: (0) open N tabs with direct connection, (1) open new tab, (2) 
set proxy using switchy menu, (3) load exception site, (3) open new tab, (4) 
return to direct connection using switchy menu, (5) goto 0.

I would agree with this. At least at work I need a per-tab proxy and there 
doesn't seem to be one out there :-(
