Very nice! Not only I can control all tabs volumes in a centralized place, I can play/resume the playback as well.

it reset it self back to 100% with each content on the same tab..no good. We need to control volume of the tab but we control volume of the specific content on the tab. So you set volume and than when you play different content on the tab it goes back to original setting.
