Reuse the current tab/pane, rather than closing and creating new

[profucius]

Great plugin you've made @juliang22 ! I hope you're considering maintenance on it going forward (I see you've been inactive on this repo for 6 months)

I have just a quick request which would greatly improve my experience of using the plugin.

Currently, when opening a video into Timestamp Notes, it opens a new tab in a separate pane over on the right-hand sidebar. Even if I already had a Timestamp Notes tab open, and had moved it to another pane (which matches my workflow), opening a new Youtube video via the timestamp-url block, it always closes that current tab and opens a new one on the right-hand sidebar again.

Would you please change this functionality so that if a Timestamp Notes tab is already open, it reuses that. This would be so great.

Thank you!

From just a little bit of code sleuthing I did, although I am not proficient in javascript at all, I think this is the section in your main.js file that starts handling the creation of the Timestamp Notes tab.

Line 30045: this.registerMarkdownCodeBlockProcessor("timestamp-url", (source, el, ctx) => {

If you do not have the time on your hands at the moment to implement this feature and do testing for an official release, I am happy to try modifying the code locally on my machine, according to your guidance. I am proficient enough in general syntax of code to be able to implement and test any suggestions you make. I can then let you know if it worked, and then perhaps you can update your main branch to incorporate the feature.
