Description:
I would like to request the addition of a "Go to Last Used Tab" shortcut, also commonly referred to as a "Recall" feature. This functionality is extremely useful for quickly switching between the last two active tabs without needing to cycle through all open tabs.
Currently, I use Ctrl+Tab to cycle through tabs in order and Ctrl+Shift+Tab to cycle in reverse order. While this works, it is not ideal for scenarios where I frequently need to switch between two specific tabs (e.g., tab #25 for monitoring the progress of a web app and tab #129 for working on an email). In such cases, having a dedicated shortcut to jump directly to the last used tab would significantly improve productivity and usability.
Proposed Solution:
Add a new keyboard shortcut (e.g., Ctrl+Backtick or a user-configurable option) that allows users to instantly switch to the last used tab.
Benefits:
Reduces the need to manually cycle through tabs, saving time.
Enhances workflow efficiency when multitasking across multiple tabs.
Aligns Firefox with features available in other modern browsers.
Use Case Example:
I’m actively working on a task in tab #129 (e.g., writing an email).
I periodically check the progress of a web app in tab #25.
Instead of cycling through tabs using Ctrl+Tab or searching for the desired tab, I could simply press a "Recall" shortcut to toggle between these two tabs instantly.
This feature would greatly enhance the user experience, especially for power users who frequently switch between tabs.
