Closing tabs via right click without focus

I might have several tabs opened that I want to close and would like right click on the tab and have the menu popup to close the tab opposed to having to left click the tab first since a lot of the tabs are network drives and opening the tab takes longer than I wish it to at times.

And what part of that does not work?
BTW: You can also close tabs by middle-clicking on them.

Hi margolis22
I remember a similar proposal: On close tab, activate the previously active one

Nice!. Just like in IE, it doesn't show the tab, it just closes it.

I've just found that you can also Ctrl-click to close it. It looks to me that it doesn't refresh the pane before closing.

You can also press Ctrl+W during Alt+Tab. This way the tab isn't activated either, but the tab to the left of it will be activated.

Ctrl+W during Alt+Tab

Should be Ctrl+W during Ctrl+Tab.
