Great you're going to do this! 


"With a possibility to make this as default behavior ... in options": excellent

"but somebody who have own set of older tabs for many months" - exactly - "many 'todo' tabs"

Actually, I already use it (Google Chrome Session Restore), and it works great. So, I have one window and in the tabs outliner I have (on top) a saved (not-open) window which has all my "closed tabs" under it, nicely in a hierarchy. I can now CTRL-click on any link in it, and it opens that link within my main (and single) window. Then, if I close that main window, and re-open it, the full session (including the TO in the first tab [pinned]). The only annoying thing (mentioned above) is that the (open tabs only) tabs are listed under a new "window <nr>" instead of under the window they came from. I was wondering if you could make it so that tabs are restored in the tree under the window they were when chrome is closed.

The Next Generation Session/Window/Tab Manager & 'Too Many Open Tabs' Solution Which Really Works!


Is the best so far. However, "Session" is not really fully valid for the moment I think. It's somewhat true, but if my suggestion were added (restore window to same window in tree hive + restore open/closed tabs "as was"), it would be fully be a great session manager.

Done. Interestingly, I could not see my 4 star rating anymore. In any case, it's 5 now.

Yay! CTRL+click opens nicely in the current window, even if the node is stored under another window's hive.... 5 star review coming up!

Just remove the 4th word after "OH," in your main/top reply above from this page and I'll be happy ;) I just think we should avoid using such words on the net. It just teaches others the wrong thing.

Can the update above be re-written please? For people (consider also minors) reading this thread, it surely is not showing them right language.

Ok, what I am trying now is the following: pick a closed tab in the outliner, drag it to the tab bar (in the same window), and release the left mouse button. The tab does not load but instead a blank tab loads. Can this be fixed?

I still prefer one window. One window is much less cluttered and easier to manage than multiple. With the workaround that I described (based on the window/tree info you provided + using Google chrome session restore), I can have the best of both worlds: a nice way to structure and format tabs, with a clean low-number-of-tabs browser. If I look at the "cleanup" video you made, I can see how this works cleaner/better. In any case, the future as I proposed it (the knowledge of status of closed/open tabs across sessions) + the "re-associate the restored window with the previously hierarchy - so that the restored window would not  show as "window 400" but as the one which was there before) would still be a cool things to have, though at least the first feature (closed/open tabs) is much less necessary than before the workaround we found. I feel that especially the second feature would seriously reduce the clutter in the tabs outliner view as restored windows would not add another node hive to the tabs outliner view.
