Color a Single Tab (or Tab Group)

Said:I rarely used tab stacksβ¦..
Bad thing. Tab stacks are "natural" separators.
Which of the two images below the tabs look neater and it is easier to find a specific tab?
-
@barbudo2005 Right now tab stacks don't solve a problem of mine (I work with ~10 tabs). When I had too much tabs there were no tab stacks, so I used different windows to keep tabs grouped. It worked very well with Windows taskbar set to the top of the screen:
It uses less screen space than 2-levels-tab-stacking, but I remember being annoyed by not having each group/window show the favicon in Windows taskbar (but you can upvote the feature request ).

@RadekPilich I've edited @aminought's code to only color the separators:
Also, my separator now stores Title and Color in the URL, so you can bookmark multiple separator configurations: https://davidbevi.github.io/separator/
INSTALLATION

<YOURVIVALDIDIRECTORY>\Application\<VERSION>\resources\vivaldi

<body>
ofwindow.html

- Restart Vivaldi.
- Put chroma.min.js and color_tabs_bb.js into

Just adding the obvious in case it wasn't mentioned, that coloring a tab stack should affect the look of it in the Window Panel as well, because you really can't distinguish anything there in its current form for so many years already.
In fact there should be an additional option for the colored Settings icons to be applied there too.

I'm sorry to interrupt coding meetup, but is there any solution or official response from Vivaldi team?
Google Chrome has it done nicely in minimalistic and readable style. While Vivaldi community is asking for this since 2017 in tons of threads and every has hundreds of upvotes.
#edit
@pafflick said in Color a Single Tab (or Tab Group):Update: although the internal report pointing to this topic was resolved as "Will not do" (and consequently marked here us as such by the moderator), we haven't ultimately decided not to find a solution for this. In order to clarify the situation, I have changed the status to "Nice to have", as it's a fairly popular request. Once we decide we want to actually implement it, we will change its status to "Pipeline".
Looks like I found answer from year ago ... not cool

Need Vivaldi to adopt Chrome's coloring or Chrome to adopt Vivaldi's tiling. 1st with both will have my web browsing allegiance ... for at least a week xD

@Devan23 Vivaldi needs to do something about it. One user more for a guaranteed 7 whole days should be reason enough to invest serious developer time. And there is always the looming threat that Chrome could react first and steal you away.

@luetage Unfortunately G.Chrome doesn't care about any browser user, for we are but "product" for their advertisers. It will take a few millions of angry Devan23 throwing tantrum all over the internet for an entire week to pique G.Chrome interest... LOL
