Brief Summary
One of the features that I miss most from safari when I switched to Orion is: open pages as tabs instead of windows option. The lack of this feature forces me to juggle between windows. This feature would smooth the work flow for users and using Safari's method of doing this wouldn't force this feature on the user.

Safari's Implementation:

With options of: Never, Automatically, and Always

Slightly unrelated: I noticed that Orion's built-in popup "blocker" failed all of these tests: https://webbrowsertools.com/popup-blocker/ and as a daily user, I am yet to see Orion's built-in popup blocker actually block anything.

        I found a Apple guide that explains this feature:

        In the Tab preferences, you can choose when new pages open in tabs instead of windows:

        Never: if a link is meant to open in a new window, it will open in a new window.

        Automatically: links meant to open in new windows will instead open in new tabs.

        Always: links meant to open in new windows, even those coded to open in their own separate, specially-formatted windows, will instead open in tabs.

        The Always settings puts specially-formatted windows in tabs instead of single tab windows.

        For example, google uses these windows for users to Sign-In. And with the MacOS feature Stage Manager, when one of these Sign-In popups appear, it pushes my main Orion window out of the way.

        Example of a specially-formatted windows:
