Details

Say I want to switch to tab "FooBar", but this tab does not appear in the AwesomeBar because either: - I have actually closed that tab, I just do not remember it; or - the tab is still open, but there many pages titled "FooBar" and the AwesomeBar only displays many entries and not tab "FooBar". In either case, I have the following scenario: 1. type "FooBar" in the AwesomeBar; 2. search unsuccessfully for the opportunity to switch to that tab; 3. close the AwesomeBar to avoid losing my current window; 4. open a new tab; 5. re-type "FooBar"; 6. either select or complete the address and press return. What I would like is the following scenario if the tab is open: 1. type "FooBar"; 2. "switch to tab" appears at the top of the list; 3. selecting it switches to tab. The following scenario if the tab was recently closed: 1. type "FooBar"; 2. "reopen tab" appears at the top of the list; 3. selecting it reopens a tab. And the following scenario if the tab is closed: 1. type "FooBar"; 2. either shift-select or complete the address and press shift-return; 3. doing this opens the address a new tab.
One bug per issue / feature request, please.
