Even going back to the last used view is not really predictable from a user's 
point of view. If the user wants to do something else than that what he does on 
the »last used view«, it breaks his work flow.
On the other hand, why is a nil view needed at all? One could start in the view 
with the default tag, instead in a nil view. No need to apply a rule for the 
first windows then, and absolutely no need for a nil view. Clean and simple. 
(I'm so bold and claim that, although I didn't look into the source code ;)
