I really liked the original Panorama that shipped with Firefox. This add-on is a great attempt at restoring this feature. One big problem I've found with this version (and I don't remember if it was a problem with the original Panorama) is if you transfer a tab from one window to a window that has Panorama grouped tabs then the add-on GUI can't see the newly dropped in tab. They are still there just hidden, and you can't manage them. I'd have thought the desired behaviour would be to drop the tab into the currently open Panorama Group.
