Decide whether closing a tab from within a partially-open Chrome window should close the tab in the tree or delete the tab from the tree. Currently it does the latter, but I am inclined to prefer the former (at least as I type this). The former would cause open and partly-open windows to differ in behaviour, which is a concern.

there are 3 icons for each item, to 1) annotate 2) close-and-save 3) delete. So why not use close-and-save to keep tab in tree, and delete to remove it ? (I haven't yet tried closing a tab without deleting it.)
