I know this isn’t directly programming related, but I think it is an interesting thing to consider when designing user interfaces.

The Firefox extension Tree Style Tabs is invaluable for me. I can open ten pages of docs, then collapse that tree, have another ten sites together for some shopping, collapse them, move around as needed without distractions.
On the other hand, it’s made me really, really want an extension that pauses the JS thread of any tab about ten seconds after it loses focus. There’s always that one tab relentlessly reloading an iframe or busy-waiting on something…
I’ve never seen that addon before, thanks for sharing :)
Also, that JS thread pausing extension sounds like a really good idea.
