[TxMt] Order of open files window tabs question ??

This is another minor/major feature request for Allan : )

The order of the open files windows tabs - in top of project window - 
has confused me for a while, as the open files have not followed an 
immediately identifiable method/structure. Having created a simple test 
project with files named a1,a2, b1, b2 etc etc. I have finally worked 
it out.

Newly opened files will always be added immediately behind the 
currently selected tab, and not in an alphabetical order nor in a order 
of opened status which I had kind of assumed it would do just like 
Safari tabs do.

Therefore, could it be possible to implement this as an options 
preference:
1. follow alphabetical order
2. order of open status (last opened is last in order)

IF this could be fixed I would be very grateful, as working with 10+ 
files open means I have to look through the tab bar for where my opened 
files has been located.

What's the general view on this ?  Apologies if this has been discussed 
earlier without me noticing it.

Kind regards,

Mats
