Can't even figure out how this extensions is supposed to work--seems pretty intuitive to be able to right click a tab and select 'rename' but I can't find this option or anything remotely related.
good but i couldn't make it stick when i closed the tab and reopened, as i tried to remame Vyond to GoAnimate
Didn't work -- asked me to reload a tab.
My use case: I have 6 tabs open of the same site making AJAX requests.
Why I hated it: When I typed in a name, it told me an error occurred, and asked me to reload one of the pages. Nope, sorry.
