Completely agree. I am actually currently developing a tree-style-tab browser that has Chrome embedded for this reason [0]. I feel most people that tell people not to have a ton of tabs open haven't experienced the increased productivity with tree style tabs. I can ctrl+click 15 source files on a github page, opened as background tabs, then (with multiple tab handler) I can click+drag across the 10 close buttons and close 10 tabs with one gesture. I almost want to take a video of me "power-using" the web with tree style tabs and multiple-tab gestures to help others understand.

I see it as vim:intellij::fewer-tab-argument:more-tab-argument. To each his own.

I was thinking about a similar way to bookmark multiple things at once, make the gesture just a click, hold, slide and then choose option. Love what you got so far.

nice! that sounds like a really good use of an explainer video because it's hard to visualize otherwise.
