There is a lot of discussion here about buttons and tab ordering; I think they all work fine as they are; it's just the behaviour of the keyboard shortcut (CTRL+T) that is jarring.
Pressing CTRL+T when at Tab 3 and having the tab bar scroll to the new tab at position 21 is extremely distracting and immediately takes me out of my 'flow'. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572074 Title: New tabs open to the right of all existing tabs instead of opening next to the current tab Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Confirmed Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: firefox As the summary says: when a user opens a new, empty tab, it opens next to the rightmost of tabs currently open in the browser. This is inconsistent with the way links in new tabs are opened, which is to have them next to the currently active tab. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open multiple tabs in the browser. 2. Select the leftmost tab. 3. Press Ctrl + T. Expected result: Have a new, empty tab next to the leftmost tab. Actual result: The new, empty tab opens next to the rightmost tab.
