Internet Explorer / IE >> Tab Groups Load/Open Option, Related Feature Requests

I created a tab set with the URLs I most often go to and set them as my
default homepages (sweet feature -- so useful). But quickly realized that I
don't always want all of the URLs to load on the tabs every iexplore start
(in my this is becase two of the pages require authentication, and
unfortunately don't allow the caching of pw credentials. So when I launched
IE I was getting bombarded with the sign-in dialogs; fine in the morning but
not every time I launch IE...

In Options, I found the checkbox to "load only the first home page when
Internet Explorer starts" (operative word being *load*), but what this
actualy results in is just the first tab being *displayed*. I think users
will expect that all tabs still be displayed, but that only the first page
URL is loaded. Can you hook it up that way? Or supress login prompts until
the tab is clicked?

Features:
put button somewhere near that tabs that restores the last tab set (rather
than hiding it under a right-click)

allow tabs to be re-ordered with drag/drop

all toolbars should be moveable; right now the "band" toolbar ("Lock Bands"
-- ?) location is buggin.

Thanks, and congratulations on the new browser! It really is a big
improvement.
