I find this an extremely useful feature request as it greatly simplifies navigation with multiple tabs.

Furthermore, Apple Safari browser ALREADY has this feature and shows little previews of the tabs.

To make it even more useful I would like to suggest the following configuration options:

- show previews or page titles or icons
- show all tabs or list of recently used tabs
- keep pinned tabs also pinned in touch bar or treat like other tabs

I personally would choose to keep the pinned tabs also pinned in the touchbar, to display icons and to reflect the order of tabs in the touchbar (I remember the position so that a changing list of recently used tabs would confuse me).
