[Geany-devel] [PATCH 08/19] When closing tab, return to the document at the top of the MRU list

This is a pretty frequent work pattern of mine:

1. Editing file A
2. Searching for function and opening file B
3. Closing file B because I just wanted to look at the function definition
4. Without this patch I get to the file following the B's tab (which
is just a random file) but my brain expects that I get to A

I know it's possible to kind of simulate the behaviour I want with
the "next to current" placement option but I really don't see a single
advantage of having tabs closed in sequential order. This is also
why I didn't make this behaviour optional. But maybe I miss some
use case of tabs being closed sequentially - just tell me.
