Sets aside grouped tabs

Feature request from twitter user:

привет, можешь сделать чтобы откладывались группы вкладок с сохранением имени группы и цвета (чтобы выделалось в панели)

Approximate translation:

Hi, can you please make it to set aside tab groups with their color and name (to highlight it in the panel)?

Assessment: this feature requires Chrome version 88+ which is still in beta branch. Awaiting stable release

Interesting ! That feature may have to be a progressive addition : Currently we can get the groupID of a tab, through the usual tabs.query method; but the name of a tab group cannot be obtained without the WIP tabGroups API, which (as of Chrome 89 during my testings), needs Manifest v3 and the "tabGroups" permission to be used. Hopefully it will be ported to Manifest v2, but I assume that won't be before Chrome 89+.

(Results are looking good however with a handmade MV3 POC extension) image

Update : As of today, the tabGroups API launched in Chrome 89 still requires Manifest V3.

@AmineI yeah, I'm aware. Actually, I plan to start work on version 3.0 where I completely overhaul existing code, make it more up-to-date and much cleaner
