Dear Nathaniel,

thanks very much. I tried Cmd-n and it worked but:
1) Cmd 3 + 4 do not switch/alter/change anything. I wonder why. I know that Cmd + shift + 3/4 is typically for screenshots, but I don't know any other meaning for Cmd 3 + 4.
2) I realized that there are only numbers 0-9, which means maximally 10 tabs. Is there a solution to jump to tab "15" [they are not numbered after 9, though]?

An idea would be to introduce a key such that all visible tabs are shifted/jumped over. This way one could jump in steps of (say) 5 tabs and then use cmd + shift + [ or ] to selected the tab one is interested in. 

Cheers,

Marius

If I'm in tab 1 and want to go to tab 8, there are typically several other tabs "in between" which can not (?) be skipped on navigation... so such a feature would seem quite appealing to me.
