New issue 18849 by rcdailey: REGRESSION: Tabs shift after closing one tab  
with cursor still hovering over tab bar
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=18849

This problem is a bit tricky to explain so bear with me...

1) Continue opening/creating tabs until existing tabs must shrink in size
in order to uniformly fit new tabs onto the bar. As you add more tabs,
existing tabs will shrink more and more to compensate.
2) Pick a tab in the middle somewhere (Not at the end). Middle click it to
close it.
3) That tab will close, and all tabs to the right of it will shift left to
fill in the space.
4) About 2 seconds after that, all tabs increase slightly in size to fill
the empty space left by the tab you just closed.

The problem here is in Step 4. In the previous behavior, the tabs would NOT
increase in size to fill the empty space until you moved your cursor away
from the tab bar. I liked the old way it worked because it kept you from
accidentally closing other tabs as you keep the cursor hovered over the tab
bar.

Please fix this ASAP.
