I was surprised at all the talk about using the mouse to close a tab, I don't know if I have ever done it that way. I usually open all the tabs I want to read, then move another window (IRC, mail, whatever) over the top part of the browser and just view the bottom/content part. Closing the tabs with Ctrl-W then doesn't rase the window to the foreground.
