Tabs Aside by Tim Weißenfels
Review by Laura Seabrook
Rated 4 out of 5
by Laura Seabrook, 7 years agoDoes what it says. There is however room for improvement. My suggestions:
A toggle which sets whether or not put aside bookmarks get closed. Sometimes you might want to save different sets of tabs with one or more of the same tab in each.
A second toggle on whether or not set aside bookmarks are deleted from the bookmarks when restored.
The ability to set the root location of the set aside bookmark folder. This would point to the folder above it to use (currently "Other Bookmarks"). One advantage of that is that you could point this is a folder on the Bookmarks toolbar.
Maybe the ability to rename the the sub-folder the set aside folders are saved to. Currently this is the name of the active tab. Maybe what would happen is that (like the old Tab Mix Plus) you'd get a popup with a text field defaulting to that, which you could edit, before saving or cancelling.
Just some ideas. Keep up the good work.

Since v1.13 the restore behavior can be set in the addon options.
Also CTRL + click toggles the behavior.
As of v1.8 there is a button in the browser action menu to just save the tabs.
v1.16 brings the ability to select any bookmark folder as the Tabs Aside folder.
I am not quite sure what you mean by your last point, feel free to elaborate here:
