Just posting this in case someone else is like me...
I didn't realize for over a week that I can get to tab controls (new/rename/lock/close,etc) via a right-click on tab title bar!
I was going to View->Tabs->whatever which slowed me down and was a bit of an irritation.
Maybe at some point this minor fact will make it into docs...till then, here's that tip!

I believe this is standard for all tabbed applications, so I did not care to mention. You proved me wrong, so thanks for mentioning it!

Seems to me there is not that much standard these days

Plus, each application has its own features/quirks, and my run-ins with tabbed app's has been very subject to that issue...
I'd add a short blurb about this in Help "Tabbed Browsing" near the "The tab-related commands are found in menu View/BrowsingTabs." sentence, saying that those cmds are also avail via right-click on tab title bar or similar.

I have done exactly this 10 minutes ago!
"The tab-related commands are found in menu View/BrowsingTabs and in the context menu of the tab headers."
PS: you entered the top ten of posters in less than 3 weeks (if only by not understanding the meaning of the SR tab

)! Congrats!
