Comment #77 on issue 13 by random832: Closing last tab also closes window http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=13
@iambob - the developers' perspective seems to be that they consider a tab close button to be a "standard control" - if that is to be the case, it should act the same in all browsers. Or maybe they should change Chromium to behave differently in other ways? For example, maybe require double-clicking to open links, or put the scroll bar on the opposite side of the window. Or reverse the meaning of the ctrl-mouse-wheel to be down to increase text size, up to decrease it (just when the other browsers have _finally_ standardized on the opposite). Or maybe get rid of the right-click menu. There is no need to be gratuitously different, especially when it inconveniences users. There are already two perfectly viables way to close the window: the close box in the upper right corner, and CTRL-W [which no-one is advocating getting rid of, @gaston @igitur...]. We don't need an extra button to do the same thing, particularly when no other browser has it. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
