I love this extension and have been using it for years. I do like the look and feel of the new release. However, didn't the previous version show tab previews simply on MouseOver rather than MouseClick? Clicking isn't really a "preview", is it? It's basically a "selection. For me, removing the MouseOver greatly diminishes the value of the extension, as it becomes essentially the same as the built-in Vertical Tabs. Thank you for all your effort!

Was wonderful to me for years but now your tab count appears as a red numeric notification jewel. Kinda greedy interface move, totally unnecessary yet no way to turn it off. No I don't want the illusion of MORE notifications. I want peace and organization that's why I installed a tab organizing tool. Uninstalling this extension because red notification jewels that don't go away are unacceptable.

Очень удобно, двигаясь по списку в окне допа, видеть смену вкладок в окне браузера. Недостатки: нет темной темы (окно допа светит, как прожектор), и не работают гор. клавиши вызова Альт+Спейс (должна быть возможность их переназначить). Даже и не знаю, оставлять или нет.
