Manual tab priority

[ALAMEN]

Please make the tabs a manual priority. So that the user decides for himself which tabs need to be limited, and which ones should always work at full capacity.
Native and advanced functionality of the "Auto Tab Discard" extension.

Explanation:
In the context menu of the tab, make the "Priority" submenu with the choice of "Low", "Medium", "High".

"Low" - it will work so that after a short period of time (about 10-20 seconds) the tab will be unloaded from memory. For example, if I need a tab with the weather forecast or personal account information always open, I went in, it was updated and showed me the current information, and then it will fall asleep until the next activation.

"Medium" - it will work so that for a long time (about 10-30 minutes) inactive tabs will gradually fall asleep, slow down scripts, etc., and eventually fall asleep. This is about how they work now using the "Auto Tab Discard" extension.

"High" - will work so that the tab will always work as active, even if it is not active and will never fall asleep. For example, web versions of messengers or social networks, etc., as well as mini-games (from yourself "http://gemtowerdefense.com /" (when switching to another tab, the game stops)).

Thanks for submitting an idea to the Mozilla Connect community! Your idea is now open to votes (aka kudos) and comments.

This would go great with my ideas. I agree and think adding an option to click and edit the priority in about:unloads would be cool. Maybe the ability to manually hyphenate entries to exclude them from being unload eligible too.  Hopefully Mozilla will implement both of our ideas. Good luck!🙂

Sounds like a feature request that should be adressed to the "Auto Tab Discard" Developers

Hi I'm Perla and I'm a product manger on the Performance team. This is actually now a possibility on Nightly. If you download the latest Firefox Nightly and right click on a tab you should be able to see the option to "unload tab." Please try it out and let us know how you like it!
