I need to give names to my various windows

I have 8 windows open all the time on my main Firefox, and switching between them is hard because the name is that of the last tab I used, which might not be very human-readable or might be similar to one on another window. It would be great if I could name my windows! Is there a way to do that? If not, could I request that as a future feature?

There is an add-on specifically for this: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/window-titler/

Does that one work for Mac (I've only tested on Windows)?

It's also a feature of some other add-ons, so if you use a window and tab manager already, check to see whether it lets you set window names.

I'm not sure it's working on Mac...it's not showing up with my other extension icons. :(

Oh, if you click the Extensions button, you should be able to pin it to the toolbar and have easier access.

Manage your extensions using the extensions button in the toolbar

If it doesn't appear on that list, are you using a private window? See: Extensions in Private Browsing.

Yowza! That fixed it...and it's working! This will really help me out, thank you!
