Drop down improvement concept

Hello,

I frequently have multiple related projects open at once, and I jump between files in different projects.  It would be really convenient if the open file tabs were listed on different rows.  That is, project #1 has its own row of tabs, project #2 has it's own row of tabs, etc.

That way I can easily jump between project files without having to scroll the tabs bar back and forth.


If that is too much to ask, please list the open tabs drop-down by project, then alphabetically.  See attached for a concept.
