==Tab "Home-ing"==
This would be useful for people who (like me) run tabs dedicated to single activities.
Let's say I've got a tab for Google, a tab for my favourite message board, a tab for eBay, and a tab for my corporation's web page.  I've set these as my home pages.  I basically keep these tabs open all day, switching between them as necessary. 
After I've surfed around I may want to send a given tab back to it's respective home page, without affecting the other tabs. 
*In Firefox2, pressing the home buttons opens 4 NEW tabs.  Not so good. 
*It would be useful if I could control-click tabs to highlight them, then send them "home" with a home button.
There are other options. 
*In the current version, right clicking on a tab opens a context menu -- it should be possible to add a "send tab home" function here.
*Perhaps there's a way to send the currently focussed tab home using the home button on the toolbar?
