(Its easier to find a tab within a window than find a window within a group of windows) When I browse a site like slashdot, any link within the page, I open in a new tab. I open multiple tabs for multiple links. When I close a "child" tab that was opened, the convenient behaviour according to me is to go back to the tab "from where" (the parent tab) this tab was opened. Kinda like taking focus back to the parent document. However, currently, closing any tab takes focus to the next tab on the right. (If there is no tab on the right, then takes focus to the tab on the left). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
