Posted March 16, 201014 yr Suggestion for the better. When using Tab Groups and I want to open a new tab group from a link. Why is there no quick menu or keyboard shortcut to do it? When not using Tab Groups and want old IE7 behavor back. Why not let the user decide with options? I am not using IE8 until it works like i want to.
