If there is only one tab open and I press the "x" button the tab bar will close and the page displayed in the tab will still be displayed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Load two tabs into your browser 2.Press the "x" button on the tab bar. The the tab with focus will close. 3.Press the "x" button on the tab bar. The tab bar will close leaving the page you meant to close still loaded in the browser. Actual Results: The tab bar closed instead of closing the tab with focus. Expected Results: There are three good solutions to the inconsistant use of the close button on the tab bar. 1. When there is only one tab open disable the close button. 2. When there is only one tab open, pressing the "x" button closes the tab leaving the tab bar in place with no tabs displayed. 3. When there is only one tab open, pressing the "x" button replaces the contents of the tab with a blank page. Solution number two would provide the most consistant use of the close button on the tab bar.
