What’s new in version 2.6.2?
Causes new tabs to be brought to the front when opened.
The standard behaviour of Chrome is to only open tabs to the front when pressing the Ctrl key - which is not an option for touch displays or people with physical disabilities. The Chrome devs have stated several times that they do not intend to change this.
Features
* Brings newly opened tabs in the front.
* Popup menu allows you to disable it for a period of time.
* Options page (using new Chrome v40 styles).
* Change the button between toggle state or popup menu.
* "Donation..." link can be hidden via the options page.
* "Options..." link can be disable via options page (you can still open it by right-clicking or on the Extensions page).

Reviews of tabs to the front:
This should really be a native option of any decent web browser.
Recently (March 2021), by default the extension does not work, you have to turn it off and back on again for the new tabs to become active. Otherwise it's neat.
I thought I would try this out, but it seems useless as it neither opens new tabs in reverse order to usual or has an option to turn off its forced go to tab.Now, normally when I pressed the centre wheel button of my mouse, it will open tabs in background. This add-on is taking me to that tab, completely defeating the point of the centre wheel button. This add-on is useless. Doesn't do what it says it does, and does something that is completely stupid, and that no one would want.
