Feature requests for Vivaldi 1.14
-
An option to Disable fullscreen mode for any embedded videoplayer, and also an option to Automatically disable sounds for pages/tabs, so videos and ads which are starting automatically will be harmless. Of course, it would be perfect If exceptions could be added, so for example it will not regarding for YouTube .
-
Multi-key shortcuts, e.g.: CTRL+Q CTRL+Q (double press CTRL+Q) could make quit browser. Now only single press combinations are allowed.
Of course, it should be differentiated somehow from multiple combinations. -
Mnemonic Shortcuts
Assign easy to remember shortcuts, e.g.
a,b = Toggle Address Bar
b,b,c = Go to BBC website
p,d,f = Launch favourite PDF Viewer: Execute Program, as in Opera 12.18 -
Ability to save and swap all tabs in this new Window Panel (for example "work/after work" set of tabs).
-

New version is close to what i'd love to see but totally missed the mark ;/
Tabbed Session/Tab Lists/Windows
However you wish to implement it.
also here's another concept drawing from my submission from previos post.
The point is to have a tab bar (like the original top bar) to switch between lists of tabs, wheter they're saved as session, or window, however you feel is best to implement it.
After pressing the tab on top, it loads new tab list. unloads old ones if the previous list was inactive for more than x minutes (no need to waste)
Instant switch between whatever you've ben doing, tabs you don't need now but might need in half an hour are there hidden from view, just in a different group, list, hidden window, session or however it is implemented.
Also tree tabs would totally work better in side tabs setting rather than side bar You know how you got tab stacking ? pretty much same thing just displayed as tree tabs rather than buttons that don't tell you much and you have to load each page to figure out what was there..
Guessing it could be worked out with the current window management system you're doing Hell it could be just inactive window that shows in main window on tab press or open in new if ctrl+click or smth :), split windows from those tabs could be deactivated/grayed out so it wouldn't mess the sync if that's a problem.

The best addon not working anymore...

Label this tab (and then group by label)
This would allow the user to apply a text label to a tab. Then later on, you can group by label. This would be helpful if you're doing some work on a specific topic and want to group all similar tabs in a separate window.
For example, if you're shopping for family members, you can label the tabs with a name. Or if you're doing troubleshooting for clients, you can label the tabs by client ID. Then at some other point in time, you can "group by label" into separate Vivaldi windows.
