Tab Groups : collapse tab group and cycle to the next used-tab

[mediaklan]

Hi everyone,

I’ve recently started using tab groups for the 1st time, and I quite like the feature (thank you !). Like many users I suppose, my use case involves creating specific tab groups for different activities.

However, I’ve noticed that when collapsing a tab group, it automatically switches to the next tab instead of the last tab I used. This behavior differs from the "Ctrl+Tab" setting (Settings > General > Tabs) cycling through tabs in the order they were last used.

Of course, a simple workaround is to switch to another tab before collapsing the group, but I thought it would be nice to have an option to preserve the last-used tab behavior when collapsing a group—perhaps just under the aforementioned "Ctrl+Tab" setting.

For those of us who are used to this kind of behavior, it would make for a more consistent and seamless experience.

Thank you for considering this suggestion !
