Yea I commented on the bug report, IIRC. The biggest argument I heard for tabs on the right side was that the mental model of the tabbar flow from most used to least used (just like the toolbar). So when you insert a new tab, you are by-definition placing the least-used (so far) tab on the left side in front of the most used (longest open) tabs.

I'm not 100% sure of what he thinks now, but the general opinion is to have tabs opening on the right on every single application for consistency with 3rd party apps, because we read from left to right and because adding tabs on the beginning makes our brain reorganize the tab system (we have to +1 the position of every single tab, since it gets changed). Those were some of the arguments presented.

This seems inconsistent to me. Is it a Granite bug or it should be fixed in the apps? -- Sergey "Shnatsel" Davidoff OS architect @ elementary
