TabCandy should look and perform like a Windows Folder.

It should have a toolbar at the top that allows users to create new folders (tab groups) and you should be able to select multiple tabs in order to move them around the window and right click for more options or more information. All tabs should be visible at all times unless placed in a folder/tab group and you should be able to double click a tab group in order to enter it and manager that tab group.

Reproducible: Always

I agree - its current implementation makes it very laborious to move more than one page thumbnail into a new group. It's also very non-standard behaviour. Dragging should allow you to select multiple thumbnails, not create a new group.

TabCandy in general royally screws up the entire Windows windowing model by hiding open pages from the OS. A fix - make each group a standard OS window: https://wiki.mozilla.org/User:Broccauley/Fixing_TabCandy

Punting to the future. This could be a good place for an add-on to step in.

 Among which I suggest should be the option of bookmarking tab groups from either this toolbar on top of the window or a tab group context menu:as of now,tab groups often get created by dumping tabs from the active window into already existing tab groups,the only way I currently see to save the group with the newly added tabs is to switch to that group and then bookmark all tabs,which is not fast or intuitive.

Did this ever get brought up for discussion in any of the meetings? I was just reminded of this tab as I had to drag 20 tabs to a new group individually.
