Expanded Tab Overview Functionality: Search for Open Tabs, Reorder & Close Tabs

Use case or problem

  • You can only reorder tabs by dragging them in the tab container, which gets less and less convenient the more tabs you have open.
  • You cannot search for files that are opened in tabs while filtering out those that are not.
  • You cannot close a tab from the tab overview.

Proposed solution

Firefox has a few nifty tab overview features that Obsidian could implement to great benefit:

  1. Command to search within open tabs’ file names
  2. Close tab
  3. Drag & drop tabs to reorder:

(There’s also an option to close duplicate tabs but there’s a feature request for this already. I linked it down below.)
