Re: New Extensions - Tabs on Treeview

[Jeff <web kiddo free fr>]

Holy cow, I should not have procrastinated for so long! I actually wrote
a very primitive extension months ago that did something roughly
similar, but just "puts the tabs on the left".

Do you think you could merge mine into your extension or something like
that? Beware of my really newbish/hackish code (well it is as simple as
I could make it)

I would love to have an extension that combines both our extension's
functionality included per default in Epiphany. Is that a possibility?
