Overall it does the job pretty well. Feedback: Having shortcut to execute the tab suspension in a specific tab would be nice. Getting the tab active automatically on a pageview instead of needing to click on 'Refresh" would be cool as well. Anyway, thank you very much for developing it.

Needs an option for a shortcut to manually suspend a tab, a click anywhere on the page to unsuspend a tab and a grey out or 50% opacity option to show if a tab is suspended would be good too. Other than that it's a reasonable alternative to Google/Chrome being pains in the rear end!

Giving this a try since Chrome removed Marvelous/Great Suspender. Will update review as time goes on. Developers: Can you add a 'Suspend all tabs' and 'Unsuspend all tabs' option?
