SUMMARY The feature of splitting a session from one tab to a new tab or window is very useful, however the inverse is also desirable. I think this should take multiple forms: 1. An optional toolbar menu button to "merge tab" with another in its list. 2. An always-available button in the session title bar of a split tab for "Move terminal to..." as a drop-down menu. This menu should list all existing tabs and windows, along with "new tab" and "new window". 3. The ability to send a whole tab, either from a menu or by dragging, from one existing window to another existing window. Currently, one can only split to new windows, but not consolidate to fewer.

Hi - just for some clarification, can you help explain what task you're looking to accomplish as a user with "merged" tabs that isn't currently feasible, and what two different tabs - which represent two distinct instances of your shell - would look and function like when merged?
(In reply to John Kizer from comment #1) Hi John, It may be best to describe it in steps for what I would like to see: 1. Start Konsole, which gives you a single tab containing a single terminal session. 2. Split the "view" into two terminal sessions within the same tab. 3. Move one of the terminal sessions to a new tab. 4. Initiate a tab merge, which combines the terminal sessions of the two tabs into a single tab, split to contain all the sessions from each. This would result in a state similar to #2, though ordering might not necessarily be preserved. Similarly, I would like this to be possible for individual terminal sessions within a split tab, and likewise across multiple windows.
