About this extension
It only effects new blank tabs, but if you are working within a container, new tabs already open in that container. If you have default containers set for a site, it wont overwrite them.
Examples
- New tab hotkeys and the new tab button will always open in the chosen container.
- If you are browsing in an existing container, opening links on that page (either with right click -> new tab or middle mouse) will always open in the same container as the tab, if the site doesn't have a defined default container set.
- So if you are have your context set for "Work" but you open up "Youtube" which you have set to default to your "Personal" container, Youtube will open in the "Personal" container
- If you have a "Work" context set, but are watching youtube in a personal tab, middle mouse clicking to open a new youtube video will open in a new personal tab
If you have a "Work" context set, but are watching youtube in a personal tab, if you open a blank new tab it will open in the "Work" container
Limitations
- If you open a link from your bookmarks, it will only open in a container context if you have one set as default.
