Well, you're right for you I presume, but definitely not right for everyone. I find browsers where there isn't a close icon on every tab unusable and hateful. You know, every window on the desktop has its own close icon and I didn't hear you complain about that. Or maybe you've only got one close icon on the whole desktop which only closes the active window, perhaps that's something mac os does with its one menu bar for the whole desktop (yuck). My style of browsing frequently involves closing of tabs which are not currently active. It is intensely annoying to have to select each tab before closing it, 10 times more efficient to hit a load of close icons. I'm no casual user either. Cheers, Martin.There's stuff above here
