One killer feature from Safari missing still is 'Show tab overview' with thumbnails of all your tabs ... anyone know of a well maintained plugin that does something like this? I think it should be built into the browser.

I just came across the link below and remembered your comment:

It was runner up in a Mozilla add-ons contest:

It is actually exposed, since a few versions ago.

It's in the Preferences under General -> Tabs -> "Ctrl+Tab cycles through tabs in recently used order". Right in the middle of the screen, when you open the Preferences-page...

Yes - I use this, and it works for a few things, but Safari shows a grid which is easier to see when you have many tabs. Thanks for the tip.
