Problem
I rely heavily on URL bar switching between existing tabs.
Current behavior has a few limitations:
Requested feature
Please add first-class customization for URL bar result ranking and matching.
1) Customizable ranking by result type
Allow users to assign priority weights/order to result types (example: heuristic, switchtab, remotetab, bookmark, history/url, search, top_site, tab_to_search, etc).
2) Ranking should control interaction order too
The same ranking should drive:
3) Configurable switch-to-tab matching rules
Add user-selectable matching strategies, for example:
4) Unloaded/discarded tab support
Ensure unloaded/discarded tabs can still participate in switch-to-tab suggestions consistently.
Why this matters
For keyboard-first workflows, predictable ranking + matching dramatically improves speed and prevents opening duplicate tabs.
Thanks!
