Works great... want to give it 5 stars, but the ONLY thing is... after Alt-X to split a tab to a new window... I'd like Alt-Z (or another hotkey) to rejoin it back to the previous window AND resize that previous window back to the full screen width again. If you can do that, it's 5 stars for you! I had to install the "Tab Glue" extension to replicate that functionality. So Alt-X invokes this extension, and then Alt-G invokes that extension, to get the functionality I want!
