Description (last modified by )
When closing a tab in the tabContainer, the tab that is shown reverts to the first (left most) tab. This can be confusing when many tabs are open.
Ideally closing a tab should then display the tab that was most recently viewed similar to the way Firefox tabs work. TabContainer would need to maintain an ordered list of most recently viewed tabs.
Thanks.

I checked both FF and chrome, they switch to the adjacent tab, not the mostly recently viewed one. That's easier since we don't need to remember the most recently viewed tab, so let's do that.

Alternately could switch to the tab next to the one that was closed (either before or after it). That seems more intuitive to me but it's debatable.
