A handy tool - wish it could allow for the selection of DOMAINS rather than exact url strings. Otherwise works great.

Hi Really love your extension However I do found that the duplication may not work well for "group-tab" Looking forward for more features/control Thanks Yeh

I just thought of this idea and wanted to develop this extension as coding practice, but checked and saw you already beat me to it. It's works exactly how I envisioned it, thanks.
