Using the current bundleversion (3.5) of the Tor Browser Bundle, how can we switch to a new circuit without losing all tabs and activity?

I understand the reason of "New Identity" means everything is closed, for if you wish to change to a new activity completely separated from the former.

But this is not the only reason to want change to a different circuit. Some times we may have to change when a circuit is slow, or if it does not allow certain traffic on policy. To lose all tabs for this is a huge burden.

Before losing Vidalia we could use this to change circuit easily. Now I cannot find a way.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Gracious thanks.
