    I can understand wanting that feature but I also get deprioritizing it. I feel like I shuffle tabs and windows quite a bit as I have multiple monitors, and even I have rarely even thought about that as a lacking feature (I have indeed noticed it). It’s just one extra drag, takes half a second.

      Maybe its just my ADHD, but sometimes that half a second is enough to well, this. A week ago, I was feeling kinda fed up with it, and tried to track down some history on it, found this 14 year old bugzilla report decided, if someone just needed to do it, I might as well give it a shot, I’m a programmer after all (inexperienced as I may be). So I made the necessary accounts, cloned the firefox repo, setup a dev environment and spent the day digging through code, poking and prodding at it to figure out how the relevant parts worked. Also bc of adhd, I haven’t been back to it in a week, but it really derailed my day.

        I feel ya on a lot of this. I hope you circle back to it some time! It could be really fun. I read an article about a student fixing a many year old FF bug in tooltips and it sounded really satisfying! I need to play around with the FF source code. Would be awesome to get a pr merged into the production branch!
