    Simple and neat. Works fine.
    Still, you can get the same result without the extarsion by Ctrl+LefyMouseClick on the Reload button...

    It has most of the features I'm looking for (on top of duplicating tabs):
    - right next to the source tab
    - keeps the history

    Just one big missing point is a keybinding. I'd be glad to have Ctrl+Shift+D to duplicate the current tab, since it would help a lot not to use the mouse when you don't already have your hand on it.

    Edit:
    I haven't found a way to answer directly to your reply, so I'll do it here.
    I've rephrased the comment so it's clearer.
    About the shortcut, I'll try at home tonight (on Linux), but here on OSX it doesn't work, I guess its because Cmd+Shift+D already exists :/

    Version 1.6 now includes CTRL+SHIFT+D and ALT+SHIFT+D to duplicate the current tab. I wanted to make this configurable but I couldn't find a way to with the current WebExtension api. If I find out that I can in the future I will make it be configured.

    It would be easier for me to help if you put feature requests and bugs on the repository issues https://github.com/Skeletonxf/duplicate-tab as I'm not getting notifications when you edit your comment (and I doubt you get them for me).

    This is an excellent extension! Thank you so much, author!

    My one gripe is that right now only supports the Option-Shift-D shortcut for duplicating tabs (on OS X, different on Windows). It would be great if this was customizable. I'm used to having Command+D duplicate tabs, and it's confusing the hell out of me (I keep bookmarkin pages accidentally).

    I'll be updating this to a 5* review once that function is added!

    Version 1.5.1 now includes OPTION+SHIFT+D and COMMAND+SHIFT+D to duplicate the current tab. I wanted to make this configurable but I couldn't find a way to with the current WebExtension api.

    Duplicate works properly now but there is a delay before the duplicated tab is made active. Maybe instead of waiting for tabs.duplicate add a listener to tabs.onCreated and assume the next tab created is the duplicated one, make it active, then remove the listener.

    I've now tried this and it is no faster at changing the focus. As the listener could in theory pickup on a created tab that wasn't made by the add on, I'm going to leave the add on as it is using .then()
