Details

When a tab is selected the previous and next tabs are given the "beforeselected"
and "afterselected" attributes. When the tabbrowser deletes a tab these
attributes are not removed. In particular if the first tab is deleted then the
second tab (which is now first) permanently has the "afterselcted" attribute.

IMHO the fix is to insert oldTab.selected = false; into the code.

The tabs element was desgined for use with a static predefined set of tabs.
However Chatzilla and the Tabbed Browser need a more dynamic tab control.
In particular it needs to be able to handle adding or removing tabs.
