Yes.  That's what I'm saying ;)

It's built-in functionality.  You hit the tab groups to get a view of
all your different groups and you can drag and drop tabs between them.
When you hit Ctrl-` all your current tabs are hidden and all the tabs in
the next tab group appear.

All similar plugins for Chromium record sets of URLS and can open up all
those URLs into tabs in addition to the existing ones.  This actually
hides and shows sets of tabs, each one maintaining state and restoring
it while hidden.  Nothing that I can find for Chromium can do that.
