Tab preview function of "Ctrl + Tab" which may be installed in Firefox 3

Although there is a combination of "Ctrl + Tab" as a shortcut key for switching tabs of Firefox, it seems that it is frequently used by Firefox users, but an attempt is made to extend this function more easily , It is under discussing whether to install it in the next Firefox 3.

It actually looks like this. Every time Ctrl + Tab is pressed, thumbnail images that are zoomed up in the middle black part are successively switched.



Also, if it is the version "0.9.2" on the above page, it looks a little different, but it can also be used with Firefox 2.


Current concerns are whether to eat the CPU a bit or whether to keep the previous Ctrl + Tab function and to be able to switch over to it.

It is quite an interesting function whether it really is adopted for Firefox 3 or not.
