Auto-closes tabs which you haven't used in awhile.

• The Corral: Stores tabs which have been auto-closed so you can re-open as required.
• Exclude list: Provide the urls or domain names of the sites you never want auto-closed.
• Tab Lock: Pick open tabs to "lock". Locked tabs will not be auto-closed.
• Configurable: Pick how long a tab should be considered ready to close and how many tabs should be open at a minimum.
• Smart: Doesn't autoclose pinned tabs, doesn't close all your tabs, just enough to make your browser usable.
