User famz [http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?p=10328573#p10328573 suggested] that the Request Log should only show the current tab's requests rather than everything RP sees. This would be a useful option but probably shouldn't be the default because RP really can't do per-tab accounting, only per-URL. That is, multiple open tabs to the same URL would definitely show incorrect information in a per-tab Request Log (as happens in the menu already). Also, some users look at the log to see why requests originated by another extension have been blocked.
