(sorry, accidentally hit "Post")

E.g.

gnome-terminal --window --profile=asdf --tab --profile=qwer --tab
--profile=zxcv

Other than here, gnome-terminal does not keep track which of its windows
was the "last opened" (which may not even exist by that time, so it'd
need to be "most recent" instead, but again, it doesn't keep track of
it).

Keeping track of this would probably be counterintuitive since it has
nothing to do with anything on the UI (e.g. visual arrangements of the
windows, or most recently used one, etc.).

Title:
  open new tab doesn't work as intended

Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  According to the help (output of "gnome-terminal --help-terminal"), if
  i use the "--tab" option a new tab will be opened in the last window
  opened from the default profile.

  But, again, if i try to use the command " gnome-terminal --tab ", a
  new window will be opened, and it will not open it in the newest
  window with the default profile ( the wrong behavious happens if the
  latest opened window is the same on which the command is run and it
  also happens if it isn't ).

  
  I don't know if it help, but a similar bug with mate-terminal (which has 
similar options) has been reported and, according to the tracking, resolved and 
came up again and resolved again (???)
