"Undo close tab" should load the page in opened tab if there is just one blank tab opened.

STR:
1. Close all tabs except of an empty tab (about:blank)
2. Choose "Undo Close Tab"

AR: opened tab is inserted and the about:blank tab is still there
ER: opened tab should load in the already open tab

I'm sorry. Could you try the following:

1. Close all tabs except of an empty tab (about:blank)
2. Open a new tab and enter any URL
3. Close this tab
4. Choose "Undo Close Tab"

This may be by design, but IMHO it would be better like I suggested.

Still WORKSFORME. Unless you mean the opposite: that the reopened closed tab should _not_ reuse the already visible blank tab. That'd be WONTFIX.

Can't reproduce it anymore, that's weird. Sorry about this.. :/

-> WORKSFORME

Ah, what I experienced was:

1) Open a tab and go to any website
2) Go to about:blank
3) Open a new tab and go to any website
4) Close the new opened tab
5) "Undo Close Tab"

but I guess that makes it WONTFIX since we probably don't want to merge tabs (tab-history, etc.).. Again, sorry.
