    A good attempt at this sorely needed feature set, but not quite there.
    I was particularly excited about the Slim bar with hover, but unfortunately this feature simply does not work properly; though the content in the side bar does indeed extend, the bar itself does not, rendering this feature unusable.
    Another big issue is the inability to drag tabs out into new windows, or onto other existing windows, another feature I was depending on.
    For these reasons, I cannot recommend this add-on in it's current state, but I am hopeful it will be fit for purpose in the future.

    Hi, thank you for your review.

    I've updated the extension to fix the slim sidebar feature, which was broken in a recent Firefox release. You will need to copy new CSS into your userChrome file to apply the changes.

    I agree that dragging tabs to form new windows would be useful; it's a feature I plan to add sometime in the future, although no plans when.

    Breaks every time you restart the browser, forcing me to reinstall the extension to fix it. Not sure if it's just me, but had no such issues with Sideberry.

    Hi Dajova. Thank you for letting me know about this issue.

    I'd like to fix this problem, but I haven't been able to reproduce it. Could you tell me what operating system and version of Firefox you're using? It'd be helpful if you could report this here: https://github.com/jeb5/Sidetabs/issues

    Thanks,
