Have Chrome-like group tabs in firefox

FirefoxGT allows group up tabs in the user's windows in a chrome like fashion. The extension allows users to create group tabs which will hold and hide the user's tab to not have to many tabs displayed at once.

The extension also supports "Close Group Mode" which hides all inner tabs of a group unless the user is activity using them.

Pinned Group Tabs also have a unique form as they allow the inner tabs to be located in any location the user wants (note that you can't have pinned inner tabs)

Known Issues:

- This extension may conflict with other programs similar in functionality.
Conflicted addons:

- Simple Tab Group
- Tab Open/Close Control
- OneTab
- Tiled Tab Groups
- Totally not Panorama (Tab Groups with tab hiding)
- Panorama Tab Groups
- Panorama View (etc.)

- Dragging group tabs (that aren't in Closed Group Mode) can be somewhat difficult as it conflicts with the close/open nature of clicking the tab so it's recommended to use the "Enter group tab" command before moving it.

- Some websites extensions can't display dialogs in as firefox blocks them from doing so, a notification is displayed instead and the action is canceled
