Details
I think it would be helpful to put a close buttong (x) on each tab, so you don't
have to be a geek, and right click to close a tab.
I love tabs. I wish there were a button to consoladate all windows down to tabs
in one browser.
Keep up the great work!

middle-click works fine, as does the x at the right.
Having a close button on the tab slows down user interaction as a) the safe
target is smaller and b) people have to avoid closing the tab by mistake,
necessitating slower movement for accuracy. This is basically Fitts' Law in action.
