User reviews
Some problems. Getting false dupes (same domain, different page), and missing real dupes.
would be cool to not close duplicated new blank tabs - i used it as a divider to separate between group of tabs
Maybe could be nice if the equal urls were listed, shown in other window or collapsed/fixed in a group.
