[Feature Request] Move multiple tabs at a time?

So, I often start browsing on some unrelated topic in already saved windows. Once I realize I've started doing this and the topic I was browsing on warrants it's own workspace, I usually like to move the tabs into their own window and save it.

This can get really tedious...

It would be awesome if there was a way to select multiple tabs in the TabFern window and drag them all together to a new window.

That would be great! Contributions welcome :) . (Although if you happen to have any time for other OSS hacking, I could really use some assistance on #35.)

My own workaround for this is to open two Chrome windows and use Chrome's multi-tab dragging (shift-click) to move the tabs between windows. That is definitely not the ideal workflow.

Related to #64. What kind of workflow/UI would you want for multi-tab movement? Multiselect + drag, checkboxes, ... ?
