    Thanks for your blog!

    There is a lot of useful info here! Thanks for that.

    I have a question though. Is there anyway to disable the tab stack feature?

    Thank you.

        Thanks for replying!
        I don’t want it mostly because it annoys me and also, because, i don’t use it.
        Sometimes when i accidentally double click one of the tabs, they all go stacked. :(

        Thank you a lot!

    Another reason why this feature should be an optional or fixed – without stack, when you close tab, you go to the last active one. When stacks are enabled, after you close a tab you go directly to the primary tab of current stack, even if lastly active tab was different, and you still have proper option selected in preferences.

    I still think that this feature is quite interesting. I already found it useful while working on multiple sites in various domains. However – closing tabs and returning to parent tab instead of last visited one is not something that I would expect and enjoy. Hard not to agree with “Marek”. Good job, but need some last fining touches.
