Make "Back to Pinned URL" discoverable through right-click menu

kai-stuntman

I was really hoping that Orion had a way to reset a pinned tab to the original URL, and I was only able to find out you can do it with Cmd-click by searching orionfeedback.org (I was going to file a feature request).

We should really make this more discoverable so more people can know that it exists. I suggest adding a "Back to Pinned URL" menu item on the pinned-tab right-click menu.

Arc shows Back To Pinned URL when you hover over the favicon and you can click it:

Orion is different because all you have is the favicon, so maybe a right-click menu item would work better for Orion.

{The upcoming pinned tab context menu option to reset pinned tab URL}
I am happy to report that this feature should launch with Orion Version 0.99.137-beta. 🙂

@laiz Oh nice! To make the keyboard shortcut more discoverable, you might consider making the menu item:
Replaced Pinned URL with Current (⌘-click)

@laiz Oh actually Replace Pinned URL with Current is different from what I'm asking. i'm asking more for "Replace Current with Pinned URL" aka Arc's Back to Pinned URL feature. Orion already has this but you need to ⌘-click it, so it's a bit hard to discover.

@laiz My bad - I think you've got it - it's the Reset Pinned Tab option.

Yeah!
Reset Pinned Tab is the same as ⌘-clicking the pinned tab.
Replace Pinned URL with Current makes the current URL the URL for that pinned tab.
