tab groups and container tabs
Despite Tab Groups not yet being "rolled out" in Australia, I am wondering if "Container Tabs" will still be Supported (in the following ways):
1. Will Container Tabs still be able to be used effectively in concurrence with Tab Groups? 2. Is it planned that Tab Groups is being developed to replace Container Tabs? 3. If one will be able to use Container Tabs concurrently with Tab Groups, can different Container Tabs Types be split over different Tab Groups? 4. Is it planned that Tab Groups will supersede Container Tabs in terms of Protection, Privacy, etc.....? 5. Will Tab Groups be able to be put to sleep/hibernate in order that Firefox "speed/memory" is not effected?
Whilst on the subject of Tab Groups and Container Tabs: 6. Up until a few updates ago, when the mouse was hovered over a Container Tab, a dialogue box would indicate: the Tab Subject, Site Identity and Container Tab Type. Please bring back the Container Tab Type when the mouse hovers over a Container Tab..! 7. When this (Valuable) information was ceased, the only way to get similar information - namely the Container Tab Type - has been to use the: List all tabs icon {tab icon 2} at the Right hand end of the toolbar. It is a blessing that this was not changed, but still a bit of a nuisance to check them both! Why is this an issue you may well ask? - I am sure I am not the only Firefox user (Forever) - with memory decline!
Thanx

Hi, it is planned as two separate features, you should be able to use it as before. You can add different container tabs to a group etc. Containers won't be replaced or merged into tab groups!
Got Firefox 138 today, and can confirm tab groups with multi-account container extension plays well together.
I also would love to know about these as well, as pointed out by OP. I just have updated to v138.0, and was looking to play around with the tab grouping functionality, but not seeing in the tabs area, nor anything pops up when dragging one common to the next tab.

I understand that they are separate features, however piggy-bagging on the good questions and concerns:
8. Is a "combined feature" planned? E.g. "Open all tabs in tab group in this container" or "Add containers to this tab group auto-magically"?
That would be a move-back-to-Firefox feature for me! Thanks for the good work.

Did you see the "Add Tab to New Group" prompt in the right-click menu on tab? It shows up for me in v138.0. This is the easiest way I found to start using this feature.
I also have 130.0.1 (64-bit) version, but I can't see the "Add Tab to New Group" either. What do I have to do?
