This could be a preference, but I'd like the drawer to close if I close all but one tab. Similar to how the "tab bar" on Safari and FF goes away.

Yeah, the final tab thing could be refined a bit. I don't like how the close tab button on the last tab goes away when it's the last tab.

Heres a semi-related feature request: dragging a link to the edge of a window pops open the drawer (if its closed).

I sometimes want to open a link, so i drag it to the drawer - would be nice if it opened when i dragged the link to the edge of the window

You're right; wish it stayed.

I'm guessing you mean dragging to the window itself, not the tab drawer. I'd like for there to be a key combination (like option+drag) that would open dragged links in new tabs instead of replacing the current tab when dragging to windows, since the tab drawer isn't always visible.

I meant that if the tab drawer is closed, and i grap a link, and drag it to the edge of the browser window, thenthe tab drawer pops out for me to drop the link into it.

I see; that would also be nice.

Well, there's no real "edge" in OW. So are you thinking if one dragged it off the browser window, to the side of it...?

Would it work like a spring loaded folder...?

I think I would rather see it so that if a user dragged a link onto the show tab drawer button, the tab drawer would open.

That said, why not just command+click the link and have the prefs set to open that in a new tab?

I second this feature, as well as the master thread request: for the tab drawer to go away when only one tab is open.

I, for one, would vastly prefer a preference, because your feature would make me crazy. I personally want the tab drawer open always, especially when the browser spawns a new window. Half the time the first thing I want to do is open the draw and drag it back into the tab bar of my main window.

With OW's tab implementation (versus the top-of-window tabs in the other browsers), having the tab bar collapsed means the windows reposition themselves if there isn't enough room to open the tab bar when needed--ugh. It's horribly inconsistent UI to have the tab come and go, regardless of browser.

That's why I said "as a preference", which is how the other browsers handle it, too.

Everyone works differently.
