Developer’s Description

By Adam Barth
Open the new tabs in the foreground.
With this extension, newly created tabs are activated instead of left to linger hidden behind other tabs. Try it by right clicking on a link and selecting "Open link in new tab". You'll be shown the new tab right way instead of having to click it first.
