Say your solution consists of many projects, but the current task only involves a subset of them. So I don't want my "Projects" tab to be populated with all the projects - it makes it hard to navigate. But if I only open the projects I am working on, refactoring may not work, since unopened projects will not be altered.

The solution would be to indeed open all the projects in my solution, but add the ones I am interested in to a "Filtered Projects" tab.

I agree, this would be tremendously helpful when refactoring large projects.

Since there already is a favorite tab, it could perhaps be put in there?

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
