Does work, but could be much better. 1. You'll just jump to one of the open tabs that matches the query 2. You can't select any other match. 3. There's no way to preview where you'll go 4. The extension has access to all your tabs, but isn't open sourced like Fauxbar.

Fast, simple, and effective. Does what it says on the box. ;-) Feature requests ---------------- 1. I really wish I could set a keyboard shortcut for this. Personally, Sublime Text has me used to typing Ctrl+P for this functionality. 2. One other problem I have with this is that I often forget what tabs I have open and end up with a bunch of duplicates; this extension doesn't solve that problem because I have to be explicitly searching for an existing tab in order to find it. Would be nice if this extension would integrate with the Omnibox's regular search functionality. (Although I realize that might not be possible due to limitations of Chrome's API.)

Works reasonably well, although having to select the omnibar and type "o " before a search still takes some time. A dedicated keyboard shortcut would make it easier to use. Would also be nice to highlight the matched text.
