Description

I just want to be able to close all the non pinned tabs of the frontmost browser window with a single command.

I am aware I could go the rightest pinned tab then close all the tabs on the right.

But it would be easier/faster to be able to do it with only one command.

Research direction

Start by locating the existing command for closing tabs to the right and the tab-management entry point used for the frontmost browser window. Add a single command that closes every non-pinned tab while preserving pinned tabs, then verify the behavior in the browser with mixed pinned and unpinned tabs.
