We have "Recently Closed Tabs" in History in the navigation menu,
but it's not intuitional,
why not to move it into the History in the sidebar?
Since there is "View" "By Last Visited", we could have a "By Last Closed".

Reproducible: Always
The fundamental reason of "By Last Visited" bothering me is:
it's not really the time sequence that i view the page,
it's the time that i open the web page,

Very frequently, we opened a page at dozens of minutes ago, keeping it there,
and then opened over tens of pages to read,
after it, i start reading the first web page and closed it,
a while, i recalled there is important information in the first page,
but at History in side bar, the tens of pages history drowned out my really "last viewed" page.

So, may "By Last Viewed" is far more important than "By Last Visted" for we HEAVY readers.
Summary: Move "Recently Closed Tabs" from menu into sidebar: "View" "By Last Closed" → Move "Recently Closed Tabs" from menu into sidebar: "View" "By Last Viewed"
Severity: normal → S3
