I had same issue, which is quite annoying since I had to reassign container for every new tab. I figured there is a simpler solution: using ctrl + space for new tabs instead of ctrl + t. You can rebind this to another shortcut from sideberry settings. FF doesn't allow extensions to rebind ctrl + t though.

Any updates on this? TreeStyle tab was able to solve this. I know you said there's no optimal solution, but an unoptimal solution that's off by default and we had the ability to turn on would be nice.

Resolved (as a workaround) in v5.0.0 (Sidebery settings >> Navigation bar >> Panel config popup >> Detect externally opened tab... sub-option)

That doesn't seem to work for me. I've enabled that setting, but when I press ctrl+t in that panel, it still opens with no container

I think that is expected with this setting. The tab opens with no container but when you make a network request (enter an address and press enter) Sideberry automatically recreates the tab with the correct container.
