It would be nice if the "X" to close a tab appeared when hovering over the tab, like in IE, so that tabs could be closed as quickly as you can click, without having to wait for their contents to appear on the screen.
If you use a mouse, any tab can be closed with a middle-click. No need to first make it active.
<ctrl-F4> and it's gone. [Bye-bye] [:)]
BTW: I'm still getting used to the new location of the "x" to close (which, as I explained, isn't necessary), but it should be considered an improvement in that it will cut down on the likelihood of closing the wrong panel. [Yes, I've done that]
And actually 'displaying' the tab would be nice in order to either click it closed or as proposed 'hover' it closed. Not wishing to disagree with the OP per se, but (as on my PC) hovering doesn't do a lot (touch-screen) nor of course for the matter the Cntrl-F4 approach, nor for that matter the middle mouse click.
Interesting the interfaces.
Hooray! (How did you ever find out about this?)

It was flagged as an undocumented feature at http://community.logos.com/forums/p/26295/196062.aspx#196062[:)]
I don't know who first found it!
A thread worth reading -- thanks once again, Graham!
