The position of newly opened file tabs is inconsistent. New tabs have appeared in ANY of the following positions: BEFORE the current tab, as the SECOND tab, or at the end of the list. Sometimes similar files are "clustered" together on the tabs, such as multiple struts-config.xml (in different directories) files are commonly (but not always) placed adjacent to each other. This is with NB601 running on WinXP x64 SP2 with JDK 1.6.0_04 x64 (AMD). This behaviour, for me, is always reproducible.
