(And my friend the `subflow`.)

My latest project (designing a `subflow`) is the right most tab.

When I got most of it there I copied the nodes into a new `subflow` and opened it TO THE RIGHT of that tab.

Sometimes I have to refresh the page - like testing things and NOT `DEPLOYING` the flow.  
I refresh it to lose the changes.  
the `subflow` tab moves to become the SECOND FROM THE LEFT tab. Not the right most - where it was.

There is/are.....  
(Gee it would be nice is the `up/down arrows` would move the selected tab when I hope the tab list)  
50+ tabs. That is a LOT of moving if I want to scroll it.

So I have to close the view; shift click on the scroll right (luckily that jumps to the right most tab) and re-open it.

Didn't used to happen AFAIK.
