Bug 18535 – Reopen Last Closed Tab (Missing Feature)

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: INVALID
• Component: History

In an age of tabbed browsing, how is it that the "Reopen Last Closed Tab" feature isn't available. 

The reopen last closed windows, and All Windows from Last Session are wonderful, but one shouldn't require SAFT to reopen the last closed tab.

Why it's a great idea:
As a user who often has mutlitple windows and multiple tabs open, I may clumsily/accidentally close a tab that I opened ages ago, burined in a long history...it's not always easy to identify it if I did it accidentally from the history and just as it closed saw something that caught my eye...sure I should slow down, have less coffee, etc.. but really, this seems a fundamental user interface improvement, and would take precedence for me to the other "reopen" commands available.

Thanks.

Tabs are a feature of Safari, the browser, not the WebKit engine.  Feature requests and bug reports for Safari should be filed at <https://bugreport.apple.com/> (free "Online" level ADC membership available at <http://connect.apple.com/>).
