The other thing from that chromium code is that the closing order should be different. In the case you describe of having opened B, C and D background tabs. Closing D should not focus A (which created it) but instead focus C.

When closing that child tab, the parent tab is the one that becomes current. In webbrowser-app, when closing the child tab, the next one in the list becomes current. It would be nice if webbrowser-app implemented the same behaviour as chromium. Steps to reproduce: 1) Start webbrowser-app, and open two tabs, e.g. http://example.org and http://start.ubuntu.com 2) Focus the first tab (example.org) and right click on the "More information…" link (this opens a new tab in second position and focuses it 3) Press Ctrl+W to close the current tab Expected result: the first tab (example.org) is the one that gets focused. Actual result: the second tab (start.ubuntu.com) is the one that gets focused.
