Yes, this is what I've been doing, and it works ok if there's only two files 
you want to see.

I currently have a whole bunch of files open, but am primarily working on 4 
files --- 2 in one project, and 2 that look very similar in a different 
project. The four tabs are not anywhere near each other, and selecting and 
dragging the tabs to be near each other is a pain, because the GUI doesn't let 
the tab move beyond the end of the window, so I have to drag, drop it, click 
the arrow a bunch of times to move the tabs one more chunk over to one side, 
then go find the one I want again and drag it again, and continue until it's 
where I want.

It would be very useful if I could git Ctrl-. and just cycle through each of 
the 4 files.
