Reopen new tabs as popup windows

[l4kr]

Hi!
Great extension.

Do you think it would be possible to have popups instead of new tabs when I click a link? This would probably be based on the url.
For example if I click a link on github.com to imgur.com it would open a popup automatically instead of having to shift-click.
It could do this especially in pinned tabs or tabs in groups.

That would be a nice addition to the extension, and will take a look if it's achievable. Both "pinned tabs" rule, and custom rules set editable by user (should probably be a list of RegExp expressions).

I'm not sure though, if it should only proccess and reopen newly opened tabs, or be more intrusive and proccess any click event on link on every page.

I think if a tab can be opened in a popup directly then it should be opened that way - aka tabs should be opened as if I Shift-clicked them or draged a URL.

Also, in general, opening a link to a different base URL like *facebook.com/* from *youtube.com/* should open in a popup.
But opening a link to the same base URL should just have the same behavior as the original website intended. (*youtube.com/* to *youtube.com/*)

I think with enough testing this should be mostly unproblematic. I could help with that.

My question is: should only new tabs with matching url be reopened as a popup window, or should current tab as well be reopened as a popup window if it's url as about to change to the matching condition?

I think for the most part only new tabs should be reopened. Although I'm curious how would browsing in general feel in both cases
