I looked on Bugzilla and Google for this, and no one seems to have
said anything about this. 

I'm on Win95 OSR2 running Mozilla 0.9.6 (and loving it, of course).

I used tabs all the time, and have found the close X to be
unreliable. that is, I have some difficulty clicking on it and
having the active tab actually close. I fail about 1/3 of the time,
and have to click again. It's not a speed issue (i.e., I'm not
being impatient and expecting the tab to close before it has time
to do so), it's that it's not clear *where* on the X is clickable,
and it's also not clear if I've succeeded. 

As the X is a command button it really should be raised, in my
opinion. At the very least, the mouseover event should raise it so
you can tell the clickable area, even though I basically consider
mouseovers in general to be a complete abomination. 

I suspect that I'm moving too fast, and that the MouseUp is not
happening until after I've pulled the mouse off the clickable area,
but if that were the case, you'd think I'd have the same problem
with lots of other X close buttons in other apps, but I don't. 

Anyone else notice this?
