I'm building a tab manager extension for Chrome, that also kills duplicated tabs.

Why?

The one I used died (Manifest V2 only, and was not updated). And I wanted to test one-shot it.

Incredibly it worked!

I have found that duplicated tabs can be useful e.g. for pages where footnotes are not hyperlinked in the text. When this happens I open a duplicate tab and scroll to the bottom of the page on it.

oh, for sure, that's why the extension shows which tabs are duplicated, and I can kill the duplicates individually, but also has a kill-all-duplicates button
