Oh I see so there really is no difference functionally aside from the fact that the native functionality is manual restoration while the addon functionality is automatic restoration?
Er...sorry. I guess what I meant by that is that from what you tell me it seems that there is virtually no difference between what the native "tab unloading" function is and what the addon's "tab snooze" function is, that difference being that the former requires manually reactivating a tab while the latter can do it at a specific time/duration like an alarm clock.
Is that about right?
Right, though I believe that when you unload a tab it stays there? With the snooze thing it closes the tab and reopens later
Yes, it stays there.
That's really cool that the snooze thing makes it go away!
