Although this seems to be partly resolved, it doesn't seem completely so. In the past I've used extensions to do this, and the new default behavior doesn't seem to behave as consistently as they did - and seems to disrupt those extensions from working properly as well.

The problem I observed with the implementation is that when you get past one level of relative tabs, the order goes all wonky. The child tab of a child tab doesn't seem to follow logic all the time, but I'll have to do some more strict tests to be sure I can provide conditions I can reproduce.

Another problem, however, is external links. An external link (passed by another application) is NOT relative to the current tab, but will be opened next to the current tab. I would prefer that external links be opened to the far right. This especially makes sense if the logic is that new blank tabs should be opened on the far right.
