remember last search field contents with each opening of the Quick Tab list

[xmnboy]

I like the fast search mechanism. I wish that what was typed last into the tab search field would be shown each time I opened the Quick Tab list. Obviously, that also requires an "X" option in that field to clear the search string.

This would help when searching for duplicate tabs, especially when the duplicates all have similar words in their names. For example, I have many Jira tabs open (bug/issue tracking tool) and, in my case, most of the issues I have open all start with "DEV1A." So that means when I search for "DEV1A" I will see all the Jira tabs I am interested in (exactly what I want). Because Quick Tabs displays across all windows, and because you are sorting the list, I can easily see duplicates.

I can use the right-click to quickly remove a duplicate tab, but I have no easy way of knowing which tab is in which of multiple windows. That means that if I want to keep a duplicate tab in Windows #1 and remove a duplicate in Window #2 I have to open each tab in the Quick Tabs list (to figure out which is where ) and then go back and retype "DEV1A" to find the next set of duplicates. See my other comment here > #37 (comment) < for a related suggestion, which would help with trying to delete duplicates -- understanding in which window instance the tabs are located.
