Feature request: delete tabs of urls passed #36

Description

Feature request: paste a list of urls, delete those tabs. I think feature makes sense for an extension that lists/opens urls. Prompt user for user for confirmation if necessary.

Use case: I run Firefox with multiple profiles each containing hundreds of tabs. This would make it possible and simple to de-duplicate tabs between profiles. E.g. in Profile A, I can copy its urls and paste it in Profile B, which will remove those urls, ensure Profile A has a unique set of urls.

At the moment I'm not aware of any extension that offers such a feature. Some extensions offer a "deduplicate" feature, but that involves opening all those potentially duplicate tabs first. It also isn't clear which duplicate is deleted--in this less ideal workflow you cannot preserve the positions of duplicate tabs that will be deleted, whereas the feature request I've described inherently does not require such a consideration.
