Feature requests for Vivaldi 1.14

Memory Usage Optimisation
Chromium has a big problem when it comes to using RAM properly. For every tab and extention it will open a seperate process which consumes a lot of memory. It would be great if Chromium's memory usage was enhanced in some way.
-
Process Manager
It would be handy to know how much memory a browser component (an add-on, for example) uses so we could turn it off.
-
Restart Button
Add a restart button to the toolbar.
-
Lock the browser with a password...
Verrouiller le navigateur avec un mot de passe... -
An option to put bandwidth limits on downloads.
Sometimes it would be helpful to restrict a large download in the background to not hog the line. One example being a download that disturbs a streaming video.
-
Do not resize tabs while the mouse is over the tab bar - currently when closing multiple tabs using middle click, the tabs can get resized and you can end up accidentally closing a tab that was to the left of the original position instead of one to the right. Postponing the resize until the mouse is out of the tab bar (as is done in Firefox) would make closing multiple tabs less error-prone.
-
Allow mouse gestures to time out after a period of not moving the mouse - I put this one in the 1.13 thread as well, hope I'm not breaking the rules by reposting it here.
It would be useful to have the mouse gestures time out after a (configurable) interval if you leave the mouse still while holding the button. This would enable cancelling an already drawn mouse gesture (e.g. if you realise too late that you didn't want to close the tab) without having to draw random squiggles to get an invalid pattern.

Capture feature to allow reszing and have capture button in sidebar
-
Show Search engine icons in "Search with..." context menu

I'd like all the issues with mmb sorted out
An RSS feedsidebar like firefox awesome SageRss/SageRss++ either one.. and make it work the same way...just the sidebar.. with tooltip hover over feeds for short descriptions.. never ever did bother opening the rendered rss feed in the browser.. but went straight to the direct feed links.

..would be nice for quicker cookie whitelisting per site directly on the bottom status bar.

Middle click "search with" search engine opens search in background tab
-
Allow keyboard navigation in download dialog and other prompts
-
smarter address bar input
when writing in it, only complete one level instead of using the latest entry if it doesn't exist in address history, so for example writing "forum.vi" would only give forum.vivaldi.net/ then typing "to" adds topic/ without the number and thread name after it until you start writing it.

Do not resize tabs while closing tabs with middle click

Firefox - better
I know it's doubled with https://forum.vivaldi.net/post/175993 but maybe you could add my title and gifs in that one? -
Add delete button in selected formula item
-
Fit Page Width
Option to force a page to display within the maximum width of the browser window (useful if there are many tabs tiled). Could be either with a hacky css like*{ max-width: 100vw !important; overflow-x: hidden !important}
, or a function to automatically zoom out the page until there is no more x-overflow. -
Handling of tab stacks has improved (thank you!) by rename, Window Panel (sidebar) and save (stack complete) to Bookmarks. When saving whole stack to Bookmarks, can the stack name be retained, please? Currently all called "Stack".
It would be very good if named stacks could simply be removed from the tab bar (de-clutter, survive exit and restart) and later reinstated, rather like Firefox tab groups. It's possible, but not very elegant, to do this via bookmarks at present. Maybe a separate "Stacks" area for names stacks in the Window panel / sidebar?
Another possibility - ability to Pin the whole stack to one mini tab?
Yours Hopefully!
