Not this this fixes anything, but recently closed tabs are usually near the top
of the CTRL-E list (I have the number of recent files set very high!).

The algorythm I would prefer is:

    "Files that I am currently working in a lot should be kept in the editor
    in preference to files that I am not working in that much."

:)

"currently"          = the last hour or so
"working in a lot" = high "activity" within the file
"activity"           = editing or /non-editing/ (moving around) events within
the file
