Allows changing to a different tab by pressing Ctrl and a number at the same time.
Primarily useful on Linux, where the default is Alt+number.
Partial replacement for my Windows Shortcuts extension for Firefox 55 and above.

Is Ctrl Tabs Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Ctrl Tabs does not require any sensitive permissions.
Risk impact analysis details
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
Ctrl Tabs has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
