Feature request-Capture and reapply custom titles for imported tabs
(Firefox) If you click an imported renamed tab to activate it, and quickly click the Tab ReTitle icon or shortcut while it is loading, the old custom title appears in your dialog box and can be manually reapplied when the tab is loaded! If you are not fast enough, the custom title is lost forever.
Is it possible to make this action an automatic behaviour of Tab Retitle?
This would be a solution for Issue 2(b) in https://github.com/Lazyuki/ReTitle/issues/10:
(b) Tree Tabs restores tabs unloaded with the custom titles now (FINALLY!), but when they are loaded, the custom titles are overwritten (because the restored tab is not in retitle memory?). Very important as I often have to restore whole groups of tabs I have retitled previously.
This would also address the same problem of losing custom titles when importing from Onetab, which loads the tabs immediately - there is no possibility to do the above manual procedure with multiple tabs loading at the same time.
A modification of this might also be a workaround for https://github.com/Lazyuki/ReTitle/issues/8
I think the old custom title is stored in the browser cache and is used while it's loading the page. When you use things like OneTab I think any information associated with the tab is lost so it would be difficult to keep the custom title aside from using the exact-match option.
I don't know about the browser cache - these are tabs which have not been opened in the browser previously - imported from another profile.
In the meantime, Disaster! We can no longer salvage titles of unloaded tabs - https://github.com/Lazyuki/ReTitle/issues/18
I guess the only workaround now would be some way to export the title data for specified tabs, to a file which could be imported with the tabs?
As mentioned elsewhere, for addons which import tabs unloaded, if they are bookmarked before they are loaded, your wonderful addon offers the bookmark name in the rename dropdown.
The big problem is where other add-ons load the tabs when importing them. (I have also asked them to import tabs unloaded but only Tree Tabs fixed this., Onetab and Bookmarks haven't. Interim solution=use Tree Tabs!)
