[email protected] : Is it possible to duplicate a tab without reloading it, like actually make a copy of it? (self.firefox)

When I duplicate a tab, a new tab is created with the same URL and I have to wait for it to download again. Why wouldn't Firefox just duplicate all the data of the tab into a new tab?

In some cases it's impossible. Think about the websites that only allow 1 active session for example whatsapp web, you open it in a tab and when you try the second tab it will ask you to choose in which tab you want it active.
