Why does it need to be native? There are numerous extensions that do this. That's half the point of Firefox, it's so extensible.

As I said in my original comment, none of those workarounds feel good. They show their seams constantly. I've tried a handful of extensions and not one feels as good as or is as feature complete as what's native in Edge.

I have no idea what you're talking about, I use a dozen different extensions, including a tab group manager, and it works great.

That's totally fair, too. Not everyone gets bothered by the same things.

The last set up I used was this one and what made me give up is that it is so easy to accidentally close it. I had to look through my Firefox history to find that and when I closed the history sidebar, my tab bar was gone. It's just a press of F1 to get it open, but why can't I just make it persistent? Why does it have to share the same space as so many other features in Firefox? I don't care if history wants to occupy the same space for the moment I need it, but when I'm done, go back to showing my tabs.
