Yes, naturally. In VS, I always use two vertical tab groups, one for
cpp files, and one for
h files. I'd love to have something like that in Sigil.
Add it to the tracker, but bear in mind it will probably be a while before I can get to it.

Whenever you make a change in a CSS tab and then switch back to a chapter tab which links to that CSS file, it should refresh.
There's code that checks whether any linked CSS files have changed when the chapter tab regains focus and that then refreshes the tab. It should work, and if it doesn't, that's a bug. Try to make it repeatable and add it to the tracker.
I've thought about a "Refresh" option for chapter tabs, but that's just admitting defeat. The tab should know when it needs refreshing, the user shouldn't have to tell it.

I've mentioned in the blog post that this is the main reason why you are looking at a "beta" and not a "release candidate".

Tab-related keyboard shortcuts (that mimic those from FF) are scheduled for the beta process, yes.

Sounds like a bug, add it to the tracker.
