Pressing Ctrl+Tab should bring up the tab that was being viewed immediately before the currently viewed tab. This would enable quick switching between two tabs. Holding Ctrl and repeatedly clicking Tab should first bring up the last viewed tab and then cycle through each tab to the right of it, wrapping when the rightmost tab is reached. This would be similar to the way many window managers implement Alt+Tab with regard to application windows.

The current functionality simply brings up the tab to the right of the currently viewed tab.

Reproducible: Always

1. Open three tabs

Actual Results:  
After step four, the second tab will be up. After step five, the third tab will be up.

Expected Results:  
After step four, the third tab should be up. After step five, the first tab should be up.
