Comment 38 for bug 572074

I had forgotten that the new tab button even existed since I use ctrl+n and cmd+n to open a new tab and completely remove the new tab button as it just clutters up space and takes up room for a more experienced user like myself. Perhaps two behaviors for either action - tab button press opens a new tab at the end, while ctrl+n or cmd+n generates one next to the tab the user is in?

It's wildly disorienting to have the new tab show up so far away from the tab you're using if you generate it using a keyboard shortcut. It's also particularly annoying when you need it to research something on the tab you're currently using as well - particularly if your desire is to compare the two pages.
