To be clear, we implemented per-tab Aero Peek with the existing machinery,
and it was UI problems (in the UI that Microsoft provides) rather than
technical difficulties that sunk it.  We'd probably need to write our own
imitation of Aero Peek and solve some of the problems that occur when users
have large numbers of tabs in order to re-enable.

The thumbnail service I wrote for ChromeOS should be perfect for this
feature. The main limitation is that it won't show thumbnails for tabs
that have never been rendered, which really bothers some people.
