This is not about making groups.

Currently we can have the different projects' files have a different color - but this is very limited (only allows 5-6 projects to be colored then the rest are all gray :/ ).

What I'd like to see is the ability to have open projects separated onto different tabs and their files be tabs inside the "project" tab. Again, this is not about having a "group"/"split" window which is inconvenient.

While we're at it, remove the number of tab rows limit.

Thanks
