Build Identifier: 20100917-0705 When you open a file that doesn't already have a tab in the editor, which tab disappears is unpredictable. I'd expect it to be the rightmost, or maybe the oldest (either last viewed or last edited), but that does not seem to be the case. In any event, it is quite often exactly the tabs that I am working in, which is frustrating. Best would be a predictable algorithm, like always the rightmost one. Then I could ensure that the tabs I am working in are on the left. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a bunch of files. 2. Edit and view different ones. 3. Now, look over the tabs and predict which will disappear when you open a new file 4. Open the new files. 5. Your guess is almost always wrong.
