Re: [vim/vim] Update last accessed tab page upon closing a tab (Issue #20965)

h-east left a comment (vim/vim#20965)

The steps you describe cannot be fixed without keeping a history of visited
tab pages. After step 4 the tab page you would go back to is the one you are
already in, so a single "last used" entry has nothing left to point at.

A history would be out of line with the rest of Vim, where the alternate file
(`#`) and the previous window (`CTRL-W p`) are single entries as well, and it
would make the destination of CTRL-Tab hard to predict. An autocmd on
`TabLeave` is the way to get the behaviour you want.

Looking into this did turn up a separate problem: closing a tab page clears
the alternate tab page even when the alternate is a different tab page that
still exists. #20973 fixes that.
