Can one UNDO the move of a tab to a new window, using Windows 8.1, it would be good to do on occasion?
Nice to be able to do right click, choose move a tab to a new window; but would be nice to on occasion, be able to undo that move, instead of copying the URL, creating a blank tab, pasting the URL, then moving it back to original position.
Frequently have made use of the ability to close a tab deliberately, when reloading not sufficient to solve a situation, then go into history to restore the tab (in its former place, which is great!).
The equivalent restoration of a moved-to-new-window TAB would be useful (for me, daily!). That would be better than doing a right click and duplicating a tab, then moving one of them - especially when on a pseudo-pc like the ACER-10 Switch, with its limited ram and memory. Am getting interrupting messages as it is re "memory is running low", so need to avoid creating unnecessary tabs (duplicates) where possible.
WHY? So I can temporarily watch, for example, 2 different cameras at a live Eagle cam site and swap between views temporarily using alt-n-tab keyboard buttons, with both on full screen. or something equivalent. EG, at SW Florida Eagles site, where three cameras are active, one of which has 360 degree manipulation capability. Really cool! 2 other Cameras are monitored and the view changed as appropriate - beautiful site, good for learning Eagle behaviour.
TIA.

Actually you can put it back to the previous location. You need to move the windows you moved to location where you grab the tab and move it into the Previous window and it should lock on. I know I did this on Chrome as well bringing windows back. So if yours doesn't do this on FF then you got some problems going on with the Browser not recognizing the move. But this is my experience whether it works for you or not is something you have to try and see.

You can drag that tab back to the tab bar in the original window to undo this detaching.
