I know I am not the only FireFox user to have dozens of tabs open at one time. To make life easier, I keep all tabs of each category open in their own separate window (group).

It would be a HUGE HELP if I could: (a) Name each open window, such as Health, Videography, MoneySites, WebDevelopment, etc., and have those names show up (in Windows) as captions for each open FF window when I click on the FireFox summary button in the task bar. Currently, the caption only shows the title for the focus-tab in each window. (b) Have each window automatically save the tabs that are open in that window whenever I close that window. This would enable us to close one window and save the tabs for it, without closing all other windows. (c) Allow me to select from named unopened windows in the context menu of FF on the task bar, which would then open that particular window with all its previously saved tabs. This would allow me to open only the named windows I want. Currently, it's open all windows or nothing. (d) Create/Edit/Delete Named FF Windows.

For those of us who manage super-busy lives these days and consequently have many FF windows open at once, this capability would be a true boon.
