What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Open Sources tab in DevTools and brows to any website that uses external JS/CSS files
(2) Open 2 CSS/JS files in Sources.
(3) Click on the second file you opened to focus the cursor within that Sources editor window
(4) Type CMD-w (Mac) or CTRL-w (Windows)
What is the expected result?
The second file editor you opened should close, leaving 1 editor window open
What happens instead?
The entire Chrome tab closes, and I lose my debugging workflow
Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.
@pbakaus We discussed this at I/O 2016 during the Chrome Office Hours and you recommended that I file this bug. Given that the Sources editor tabs behave like our native code editors, we should expect it to behave similar to an editor. I'm a fan of DevTools Workspaces and often save time by editing JS/CSS directly in Sources. However, muscle memory habits like CMD-w click in when I have multiple Sources files open that I no longer need. Then my entire DevTools workspace is closed accidentally, which takes numerous steps to recreate again.
If CMD-SHIFT-P mimics Sublime's Command Palette, it would be great if CMD-w mimics the "close active tab where the cursor is focused" behavior.
