Actually, Firefox has it natively since 48. Just enter the title in the URL bar, and it'll suggest going to that tab.

Firefox has had it native since firefox 4. See this article: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Location_Bar_search#Location_Bar_s...

You can enter "% string" into the location bar, and it will suggest switches to open tabs which contain that string either in their title or URL.

I've been using this little-known location bar feature for a long long time.

Hm, then 48 just changed the way it works, because I've never seen it before that one.
