George: This case has basically become about “finishing the job” that insertRelatedAfterCurrent started.
The others here and I seem generally to believe that *all* new tabs should be able to open to the right of the current tab. Whether multiple consecutive new tabs open up right-to-left or left-to-right is, IMO, a minor issue. The major point is that the current behavior, whereby all CTRL-T new tabs open to the extreme right, is very frustrating for many of us. Tab Utilities and Tab Utilities Lite allow this, by the way.

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.
