User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:57.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/57.0 Build ID: 20180103231032 Steps to reproduce: 1) Set browser.ctrlTab.previews to false (eg, because it makes tab switching slower). 2) Switch between tabs using ctrl+tab. Actual results: Tab switching uses tab bar order. Expected results: Tab switching should use MRU order, same as when browser.ctrlTab.previews was true. browser.ctrlTab.previews should not affect tab switching type (tab bar order vs MRU). It should only affect whether previews are shown when ctrl+tab is used. Please consider a separate setting to choose between tab bar order and MRU order, if needed.
