      I find myself already using the new Tab Islands plenty, for many things, but foremost for Organization.
      But if you use many different Tab islands at once, like me, you can lose the overview quite fast.

      I would think that the following features would greatly increase the usability of Tab islands

      Customization:

      • choosing your own color
      • giving the island a name (especially for the
        right mouse → move to → island function)
      • using a symbol/emoji instead of a color

      Options:

      • option for showing the (foremost) website symbol instead of a color
      • option so when collapsed, the foremost tab is still visible like when collapsed while still inside the island (for better recognizability)

        I came onto the forum to request this exact feature, I'm glad it's already listed out. I find it hard to believe how the Tab islands feature was released without considering the option of giving it names, without this it is very easy to lose track. Requesting the team to take this feature request on high priority.

          I agree - orientation in tabs is very problematic if you have too many of them...
          I often can't even find the current one that I have open right now...
          work is getting frustrating - I'm thinking of changing browsers...

            I just spent an hour or so porting all my tabs and tab groups to Opera from Edge and am shocked / disappointed to see that I can't name the tab islands or choose their colors. This makes Opera a non-starter for me. Too bad, as I like it otherwise, so far.
