Close tabs which are duplicated. Only tabs with exact URL matches are closed.

Ever run into situations where you have lots of tabs open and you realize you have some of them open multiple times? If then you felt the need to close duplicate instances of that tab, help is at hand!

Close Duplicate Tab does exactly what its name says - it identifies URLs which are open in multiple tabs, and closes all instances retaining one. It also is smart enough to detect if you are on one of those duplicate tabs, and closes the other ones so you can continue doing what you are.

Coming soon: keyboard shortcut, auto close, limit to current window, group top domains in single window etc. Suggest more features!

I just thought of this idea and wanted to develop this extension as coding practice, but checked and saw you already beat me to it. It's works exactly how I envisioned it, thanks.

Closes the duplicate tabs, does the job well. As well reading through the reviews here, developer is very involved with her/his work.
