According to a software patent, the Quick Tabs feature in Internet Explorer is likely to be enhanced with better functionality and greater tab management options.

In January, Neowin revealed that Microsoft is planning to enhance tabbed browsing in IE9. Features such as rounded corner CSS support will be built in. Microsoft originally unveiled Internet Explorer 9 at PDC 2009. IE 9 will take advantage of the power of the GPU for all page rendering and developers can exploit this using CSS, DHTML and javascript. A new JS engine (codenamed Chakra) will also be built into Internet Explorer 9 with greater interoperability and standards support all round. Neowin has independently verified the screenshots and we can confirm these are genuine and from a build distributed to internal and external partners. The screenshots do not reveal any UI changes apart from what appears to be a new icon. The new features are an early look at what features Microsoft is planning for the first beta of Internet Explorer 9. The screenshots reveal a download manager for pausing and canceling downloads, a new icon for Internet Explorer 9 and what appears to be greater security control of add-ons. Screenshots of the build leaked to Chinese website Cnbeta earlier this week. An early Internet Explorer 9 build has revealed a new download manager for Microsoft's popular web browser.
