Option to keep tab open on stash as a default

[Glint-Eye]

Problem Statement

I primarily use Tab Stash as a Tool to quickly save and access Bookmarks I currently use a lot, which I want to have seperated from my regular Bookmarks. I like the speed and ease of use of Tab Stash to just quickly save Stuff i might need later but still be able to copy Tab Stash Bookmarks into my regular Booksmarks if i intend to keep them. But i never really use it as a tool to save a current session of tabs.

So more often then not i do not want to close the Tabs that are currently open, I just want to save them into Tab Stash. I know it is possible to keep the Tabs open through an "Alt + Click" inside the Sidebar or Tab. But I'd like this to be the default so i can make use of the shortcuts to stash Tabs, which, right now, in any configuration either close or hide Tabs.

Preferred Solution(s)

I'd like to just have an extra Option in the Settings to make the default behaviour after stashing a Tab, to keep the Tab open. In this state "Alt-Click" in the Sidebar or Tab could be the inverse that now will close a Tab upon stashing.

Alternative Solution(s)

Maybe a seperate Shortcut for stashing Tabs without closing.

Hi, thanks for the feature request, I'll keep it in mind!

I second this feature request, but I would like to add some comments. Currently you can modify two actions holding buttons: you can keep a tab open on stash holding the Alt button, and you can open a stashed tab in the background holding the Ctrl button. IMHO it would be better to use the same modifier, and according to the Microsoft's Guidelines for Keyboard User Interface Design I think it should be the Shift key, see this discussion.

I suggest to add an option to keep tabs open on stash by default, and another to load tabs in the background by default. In either case, holding the Shift button would change to the opposite behavior (the popup tip would need to change accordingly).
