Latest Opera build adds advanced tab manager

Not happy with the way the Opera web browser handles tabbed browsing? Just download the latest snapshot of Opera 9.5 beta. The newest build includes advanced tab management features that let you choose how Opera reacts when you close a tab. When you close a tab, you can decide whether to activate the last active tab, activate the tab to the right, or the first tab opened from closing tab. In other words, you can make Opera act a bit more like Firefox, Safari, or other web browsers.

About the time I thought Opera was complicated enough already they make it more complicated.

That't not a setting that I would ever bother with. I like the way Opera handles the tabbing focus now, so this new "feature" doesn't do anything for me...

Opera really isn't complicated. In fact, Firefox is more complicated because if you want any of the functionality that comes default with Opera, you have to find and install the pluggin for it and hope and pray that it works as advertised. I don't have to worry about finding Firefox's missing functionality since it is included by Default in Opera...
