Move active tab left - ctrl-shift-pgup Move active tab right - ctrl-shift-pgdn Move active tab to first position - ctrl-shift-1 Move active tab to last position - ctrl-shift-9 Move active tab to nth position - ctrl-shift-<2..8>

A few months ago, this extension gained the "ability" to move a tab "left" but back to the end. The other way around doesn't work. Would you kindly implement this for both directions, or none as it was before?

Useful, works. Great for avoiding accidentally moving your mouse when you want a tab to be first in the order, and instead pulling it into a separate window. I have pinned tabs in another window, though I believe that's unrelated. The ctrl+shift+number doesn't work to move a tab, but the page up/down works fine.
