Feature request - preserve pinned tabs

[whitty]

Thanks for the useful addon!

Would it be possible to exclude pinned tabs from power-closing? The assumption would be that you have few enough of these that you probably don't need to power-close them.

Alternatively that could be a configurable option.

Hello, @whitty.

There is currently a pull request submitted by @marcelothebuilder that does this.

https://github.com/mos3abof/firefox-power-close/pull/10

As I commented there:

Thank you @marcelothebuilder. I will incorporate your change after some testing. I am still thinking whether to add it directly, or if I should add a config page for this addon to give users the ability to control pinned tabs behavior.

Very good catch.

So it is going to be there soon. Will keep you posted on this issue, or if you want, you can signup for the newsletter here: https://www.power-close.com/

Hi! I know this issue (and the related PR) is nearly 3 years old, but I'd love to have this feature, so see this comment as a small reminder :D

The same request, please add an option to preserve pinned tabs.

I feel bad suggesting this, but because I needed this feature (I originally logged this issue) I implemented my own extension for tab closing with the option of ignoring or including pinned tabs. Its hosted on github and available on firefox, but I won't link it because that seems like poor form.

Thanks, will get it from your repository.
