While reading a page where I want to open a followup tab, I want that tab to be "next". Right now it goes at the end.

Even better, if I'm opening 5 different tabs while reading one page, I want those to be the next five tabs, opened in order.

The first gives LIFO; the second gives "depth first". The current (open the tab at the end of the list) gives "breath first" or FIFO.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open some tabs.
2. Close that first tab, and start reading the second one.
3. Open more tabs relevant to the current page.

Actual Results:  
Tabs relevant to the current page are at the end of the list of tabs

Expected Results:  
Tabs relevant to the current page are after the current page, before the rest of them.
This may be a dupe of an existing bug, I will look.
