299678 - When closing tabs, sometimes a new, blank tab appears

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 224002

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Oliver White]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

When using the 'close tab' button on right of tab-bar to close tabs,
occasionally a new blank tab will appear at the end of the list of tabs.  The
new tab will be focused/selected/on-top, and will contain a blank white area. 
This behaviour seems to be intermittant, happening maybe once for each 10-20
tabs closed. 

Reproducible: Sometimes

Perhaps, you're accidently double-clicking on the 'close tab' button? (which is
something that is fixed at least in the trunk builds)

This is a duplicate, the original has double-click in the summary, and its mac-only
