Latest version
Version 0.1.4
Released May 10, 2020 - 13.26 KBWorks with firefox 48.0 and laterAdded code to skip reloading of pages that are currently loading. New tabs open with the 'completed' status. Any tabs with the 'loading' status are probably not new tabs, and therefore, should not be reloaded when moving to another window.Source code released under The Unlicense

Version 0.1.3
Released Dec 1, 2019 - 13.06 KBWorks with firefox 48.0 and laterDiscovered that when tabs are 'attached' to a different window, the target window does not receive focus. By utilizing the 'windows.update' api with '{ focused:true }', the target window gets the expected mouse/keyboard focus. Combined with the original workaround idea, this fixes the issue when moving new tabs between existing windows, and to a newly create window.Source code released under The Unlicense
