I propose an optional feature - clicking on active tab switches to previously selected tab (à la Tab flip feature of pre-quantum Tab Tree addon).

It's quite productive feature to have, as it saves time when cycling through a couple of tabs without having to resort to ctrl+tab shortcut.

Naive (but seemingly working) implementation example attached. tabflip.diff.txt

/me wonders if I should come up with some kind of public JS API so users can augment tab center.

it can be interesting to explore! unfortunately firefox is not (yet?) flexible enough to completely override tab close logic :(
