Open new tabs from within a stack of pinned tabs outside of said stack
-
Example Usage Scenario
Let's say I have a stack of pinned tabs containing the inboxes for two of my email accounts:
By default, navigating to a link within an email that leads to an external website (or otherwise opens a new tab) will open in a new pinned tab inside the tab stack, and this new tab must be moved out from the stack and then unpinned for it to be closed.
Proposed Solution/Features
This is simply an example solution off the top of my head. There are definitely other means to go about this.
-
Allow for individual tab stacks to be set as immutable.
Add an item to the context menu for tab stacks that toggles whether their contents can be modified. If a tab stack is configured to be unmodifiable, then it cannot have tabs added to or removed from it (meaning that new tabs opened from inside the stack appear outside of the stack). Another potential effect could be that the order of the tabs within the stack becomes fixed. -
Allow configuration of whether new tabs should inherit the pinned state of the tab they were opened from.
Add an item to the context menu for pinned tabs that toggles whether new tabs opened from within them should also be pinned. Optionally, a new boolean setting could be added tovivaldi://settings/tabs/
that affects this behaviour globally.

I'm also running into this issue for work. Would love to be able to have a way to open links in my email so that the tabs open outside of the pinned tab stack.

@Anomalocaris Workaround: Drag the link onto the New Tab [+] button.

I would like to add a PROPOSED SOLUTION:
- Simply go back to the behaviour of Vivaldi 6.5 and below: Links opened in a new tab from a pinned tab inside a pinned stack were opened in the same stack but not pinned!
The change in behaviour in 6.6 makes absolutely no sense to me - at least I cannot imagine any scenario where this might be useful.
