After closing all tabs and clicking an external link, the last closed tab is re-opened

Reported by tomac...@gmail.com, Jul 2 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/51.0.2704.103 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open some tabs
2. Close them all, leave the browser open
3. Open an external link to a webpage (such as with a Mail client)
4. If bug is not found, close that tab, and try one more link

What is the expected behavior?
When clicking an external link, one tab should open

What went wrong?
Chrome opens two tabs, the linked page, and the last opened page

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 51.0.2704.103  Channel: n/a

I wasn't able to reproduce this issue. Could you give more specific reproduction steps? (which sites do you use?)

Also, if you disable your extensions, does this issue still occur?

It is not the "sites" but rather the source being a link in an external mail client. I personally use "Airmail 2" and on Mac 10.11. It is a paid app, but it surely uses a simple link handler for Mac. Can you post a video / screencast of your attempt and I'll try and identify if anything is different? The steps seem straightforward, so I can't guess what would be missing.

As to disabling extensions, it seems quite a harsh step as I have many. I'll consider it though, at some point.

Here is a video. I don't see the use in removing the extensions. AFAIK there is nothing there that relates to any extension.

After the tab closes, the program underneath it is "Airmail 2" not another tab. No other tabs are open (and it definitely closed though the video didn't include the title bar for privacy reasons, so its hard to tell).

Reproduced with 51.0.2704.106. Steps:

1. Search for a mailto link on the Internet. Copy the mailto link (as HTML) to a TextEdit window.
2. Make sure you've set Gmail to be the default app for mailto links (search "set gmail as default for mailto links" for instructions). Confirm that clicking the mailto link in TextEdit activates Chrome and creates a new Gmail compose window.
3. Quit Chrome and launch with an empty user-data-dir (i.e. from the command line, with the flag --user-data-dir=blah)
4. Choose Chrome -> Preferences and set Chrome to Continue where you left off in the On startup section of Settings
5. At this point the initial window has three tabs. Add more tabs as desired.
6. Choose File -> Close Window to close the entire window
7. Click the mailto link in TextEdit

At this point the closed window with all of its tabs returns.

Seems like it's related to  Issue 500083 .
