This extenstion is desperatly needed on FF 57. Although there are dozens of extensions dealing with tabs there is none which is so useful. Please port it to webextension! Let me know if I can be of any help (testing etc.).

@gomita That's true, your add-on is unique. Are you going to make a WebExtension of it?

Tip Tab comes close but it requires a separate tab to be opened to zoom the thumbnail view for the other tabs. I asked the Tip Tab developer if there was any interest in implementing the Tab Scope functionality.
