This is a very nice extension, but fails to detect Google Workspace (docs/slides/sheets) duplicates when the duplicated documents are displaying different tabs, slides, or sheets. I've tested this multiple times and can see that the extension only sees the 2 tabs as duplicates when I switch one of them to the same slide/sheet/tab as the other. Google changed the way the slides/tabs/sheets are specified and all that information is no longer just after the hash symbol. For example, for sheets, the format is like this: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/{{DOC ID}}/edit?gid={{SHEET ID}}#gid={{SHEET ID}} Similarly, slides in Google Slides are like this: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/{{DOC ID}}/edit?slide=id.{{SLIDE ID}}#slide=id.{{SLIDE ID}} And for Google docs, the URL format for tabs is: https://docs.google.com/document/d/{{DOC ID}}/edit?tab=t.{{TAB ID}} It would be great if the extension could have an option to ignore any characters after the following 3 strings in the URL: "?gid=" "?slide=" "?tab=" This would fix the functionality for finding duplicates of the same Google docs file. Do you think this is something you would have the time to implement? Many thanks for your great work

Good stuff, works exactly as expected.

Maybe I'm reading it wrong, but it only seems to use the domain and not the full URL for working out if tabs are duplicates are not, e.g. it showed me a load of tabs from github as "duplicates" but they were all different. Perhaps the number after the tab shows they're different in the UI, but I couldn't find any options to use full URLs.
