Hi,
I read you article/request for “Keyboard shortcut instead of mouse dragging”. Here’s what I’ve found after my first try:

Hold ‘Ctrl’+'Shift’ and then press ‘t’. This will duplicate a tab with it’s URL. BUT :-( It always opens the URL of the first tab.

Enjoy…

Though the duplicate tabbing works fine with the keyboard shortcut (Alt +Enter) but the tab history is not duplicated. Its only the current url that gets duplicated.
Whereas using the mouse dragging duplicates the history of the tab as well.

[Mouse] – Hold Command, drag tab to new space.

Can’t get this to work. I’m using Mac OS X Tiger and FF3. When i hold Command and the tab. It just moves the tab, some blue indikator appears. And actually does the same if i hold Command or not.

The keyboard tip work great though :)

[Keyboard shortcut] – Click URL (highlight), Alt + Enter

you can do this only with keyboard using F6 instead of click url
