Description
### Your use case
I would love tabs in **Element Desktop**.
This is not about Element Web, which would be fine if element-hq/element-web#26231 can be fixed.
#### What would you like to do?
Have multiple tabs with different rooms (and currently scrolled to position) open at the same time.
#### Why would you like to do it?
Multitasking. Example: To be able to switch to some other room without having to close current room (loose scroll position, forget about that I was in that room, etc..)
I have 4 applications always open on my screen:
- Browser (has tabs)
- Terminal (has tabs)
- Mail client (has tabs)
- Element
A browser without tabs would be unthinkable for me. I think the same would be true if Element had tabs.
#### How would you like to achieve it?
As usual (like in web browsers).
### Have you considered any alternatives?
